UPDATED VISITOR RESTRICTION INFORMATION

Cumberland County Hospital (CCH) is committed to providing the highest quality care and ensuring the safety of our patients, employees, providers, volunteers and visitors. We continue to work closely with the Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services and follow guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to ensure our hospital is prepared with the appropriate plans to detect, protect and respond should anyone in our community contract or be exposed to the novel coronavirus (COVID–19).

We have updated our visitor guidelines to protect our patients, staff and the community. This plan will go into effect on March 16, 2020: No visitors will be allowed to enter the facility, with the following exceptions:

- Patients who are minors under age 18 may have one parent or guardian visitor

- Patients undergoing procedures may have one visitor who should leave the hospital as soon as possible after the procedure or surgery

- Clergy may visit patients for emergency care and end-of-life care

Visitors may enter the hospital through the Main Lobby entrance only. Staff, including nurses and physicians, must enter the facility at all times through their designated entry point.

All visitors and patients will be screened and have their temperature taken upon entry. No visitor will be allowed if they have symptoms of respiratory infection or flu (fever, cough, shortness of breath), have recently traveled to an area with a known outbreak of the virus, or have had close contact with a person who is presumptive positive or positive for COVID-19.

All visitors listed above must be over the age of 16.

The gift shop will be closed for business until further notice.

The cafeteria will be available for patients, staff, and screened visitors only and only on a “take-out” basis.

Additional guidance will be forthcoming.

We will compassionately evaluate exceptions on a case-by-case basis.

Again, these changes will be effective as March 16, 2020, and we appreciate your understanding and cooperation during this time. We want to assure our community that these changes are being made proactively out of an abundance of caution and empower us to further prevent the spread of illness.
