Due to community transmission of COVID-19, Health PEI is placing additional restrictions on visiting hospital facilities across PEI.
At this time only three (3) Partners in Care are permitted to support each patient. There will be no general visitors allowed. Partners in Care must follow infection control guidelines which include wearing a medical grade mask at all times and will not be permitted to eat or drink in Health PEI facilities.
In exceptional circumstances, accommodations may be made for compassionate reasons with the approval of the hospital’s administrator.
Patient may leave on a pass with their Partners in Care only and will need to follow all CPHO guidelines on physical distancing, gathering limits and mask wearing to help keep COVID-19 out of our facilities.
We will reassess the situation on January 5, 2022 and promise to remove restrictions as soon it is safe.
