Effective immediately the trauma center has implemented changes in accordance with current New York State Health Dept. guidance.
ECMC announced it has updated its patient visitation guidelines based on NYS Department of Health guidance.
Starting this Tuesday No visitation will be allowed with Patients with COVID-19. No Emergency department patient visits or Cancer infusion center patients. Some exceptions, pediatric patients, labor and delivery patients.
The hospital said the change is due to historically high inpatient volumes, extended wait times in its emergency room, and an increasing COVID-19 inpatient census.
