Visitors
Reminder: Visitor Policy
Limited visitor restrictions still apply and anyone entering the hospital will be required to wear a mask, per the universal UnityPoint Health masking policy. Reminder, only one visitor per patient will be allowed between the hours of 8 a.m. - 8 p.m., in most instances.
Please be kind to our team members if they remind you of our policy. We want to keep everyone safe.
This does not include the behavioral health units, where restrictions remain. Exceptions include end of life care, which may have two visitors and will be assessed on a case-by-case basis.
Visitors must follow screening procedures and may not have any respiratory symptoms or known exposure to COVID-19 in the last 14 days. Visitors will not be permitted if the patient admitted has a positive or pending COVID-19 test.
Hospital visitors will be required to wear a mask. At this time, no visitors under the age of 18 are allowed.
Visitors must stay in the patient’s room the entire duration of their visit. Once the visitor leaves the patient room, they must exit the hospital.
Inpatient visiting hours have been set from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Exceptions include:
- Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) patients may have one birth parent plus one significant other who must remain in the room for the duration of the visit.
- Patients who are at the end-of-life may have two visitors.

Sending a gift
It's easy to order flowers or a gift or a greeting online for patients at St. Luke's.
Visiting hours
St. Luke's believes having visitors and family present during
hospitalization may help patients in their recovery. In addition, we
recognize the rights of patients to have visitors while they are
hospitalized. Visitors are typically welcome from 5 a.m. - 8 p.m., although some
units may have more limited visiting policies that meet the need of
their patients. In addition, we observe a quiet time
from 12:30 - 1:30 p.m. each day.
