Thanks for the info! Do you mind sharing which hospital? You can direct message me if you don't mind. I'm just putting all the info into a excel document.

We are a level III with 24/7 doctors and NNPS. I'm in Memphis but haven't heard of this. I don't expect ours to ever change.

hospital NICU level private patient rooms number at bedside who can visit when can you visit sibling RSV guidelines other

I am doing research for my unit and we are curious about the different nicu visitation policies and if there are changes made to the policy for RSV season. If you could share your hospital's policy, it would be a huge help! I'm looking for certain things, so I'll put my hospital info down for example: hospital (Methodist) nicu level (III) private patient rooms (yes) number at bedside (unlimited, nurse controlled but not written in policy) who can visit (parents and grandparents 24/7 all other visitors must be with a parent in order to visit) when can you visit (24/7) sibling (any age may visit, nonsiblings >2y) rsv guidelines (limited to parents, grandparents, siblings, aunts and uncles 24/7. aunts and uncles must be with a parent. siblings >12y) other (grandparents may not bring anyone with them but may visit without the parents present, if given permission by the parents. all other visitors, during standard visitation and RSV visitation, must be with a parent.) Thanks for your help! anicu
