Patients & Visitors
Current Visitor Guidelines
Effective March 20, 2020
No visitors are allowed at this time per a state health order issued by the Alabama Department of Public Health.
Exceptions include maternity and pediatric areas and end of life situations. Visitors are limited to one (1) per patient in maternity and pediatric areas. Visitors must be over the age of 18 and have no symptoms of illness. Visitors are asked to sanitize their hands when entering the hospital or Flowers Medical Group clinics and when entering or exiting patient rooms. Visitors should continue to wash their hands frequently during a prolonged visit.
You may also call a patient’s room so they can hear your voice and you can hear how they are doing. The hospital has free Wi-Fi, so you may visit patients using Facetime or another video communication app.
Entrances are limited at this time. Patients and visitors may enter through the Emergency Room entrance, the Heart Institute entrance or through the Doctors Center building.
Additional Visiting Policies
- Visitors must wear shoes at all times.
- Flowers Hospital is a tobacco-free campus, and smoking is not allowed. This includes all electronic smoking devices such as e-cigarettes and vapors.
- Don’t bring patients food or candies unless the attending doctor gives permission.
At Flowers Hospital, we understand that coming to the hospital as a patient or as a loved one's support person can be a difficult, often overwhelming experience. Whether you’re preparing for a hospital stay or stopping by to see friends and family, knowing where to go and what to bring will help make your visit less stressful. To make your experience easier, we want to provide you with helpful information you may need to plan your visit, such as what to expect, parking instructions, transportation and more.
