WINSTON-SALEM — As COVID-19 cases continue to decline in our communities, Novant Health is adjusting its visitor restrictions. As of Monday, March 15, at 8 a.m., most adults and children hospitalized at Novant Health facilities in North Carolina will be allowed to have two visitors per day. Restrictions remain in place for COVID-19 positive patients who are hospitalized or in the emergency room, as well as patients who are under investigation for COVID-19. Exceptions may continue to be granted in special circumstances, such as end-of-life care.

Visitors are required to complete a routine screening questionnaire with temperature assessment. Visitors must also wear a mask for the duration of the visit as is standard practice for all patients and team members at our facilities. Novant Health will continue to limit entrances and exits to centralize foot traffic. Visitation hours remain in effect for specific areas.

The restrictions apply to the following hospitals throughout the Novant Health system, including:
