Batesville, In. — Due to the significant decrease of flu activity within our community, visitor restrictions at Margaret Mary Health will be discontinued as of March 22, 2018. Even though the hospital is returning to standard visitation policies, we do ask all visitors to take precautions to avoid spreading illnesses. Precautions include:
- No visitation by anyone who is currently ill or has been ill within the last 48 hours with any respiratory symptoms, including but not limited to, cough, fever, muscle aches, runny nose, sore throat, or other viral symptoms such as vomiting and diarrhea
- Remembering to cover your cough and/or sneeze with a tissue or use your sleeve
- Frequent handwashing and/or use of an alcohol-based hand-sanitizing rub
The hospital has also made hand sanitizer, tissues, and facemasks available to both patients and visitors at the entrances of all hospital facilities.
