Understanding Visiting Hours

Visiting hours at Horizon Hospital are designed to ensure that patients receive adequate rest while allowing family and friends to provide essential support. We understand the importance of visits for both patients and their loved ones, which is why we've structured our visiting hours to accommodate this need.

Our standard visiting hours are from 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM daily. These hours allow for a balance between patient rest and visitor interaction. However, we recommend checking with specific departments as some units may have different visiting schedules.

Special Units and Their Visiting Hours

Certain areas of Horizon Hospital have unique visiting hours or restrictions to ensure patient safety and comfort. For instance, the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) allows visitors from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM but limits the number of visitors to two at a time. This helps maintain a calm and controlled environment for our patients.

The Maternity Ward welcomes visitors from 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM, with special considerations for siblings of newborns. We encourage family bonding while maintaining a restful atmosphere for new mothers.

Guidelines for Visitors

To ensure a pleasant experience for everyone, we ask visitors to adhere to the following guidelines:

  • Keep visits brief to allow the patient adequate rest.
  • Use hand sanitizers provided throughout the hospital to maintain hygiene.
  • Refrain from visiting if you are experiencing any cold or flu symptoms.

These guidelines help protect our patients, many of whom may have compromised immune systems, from unnecessary risks.

Special Considerations for Long-Distance Visitors

For visitors traveling from afar, Horizon Hospital offers several amenities to make your stay more comfortable. We have partnered with nearby hotels to provide discounted rates for family members of patients.
