At Bon Secours Charity Health System, our primary goal is to provide
Good Help to Those in Need®.
 UPDATE: The increasing incidence of H1N1 and expectation of a surge of cases has caused the Bon Secours Charity Health System to take proactive steps to protect our patients and employees from potential exposure to the flu.
For this reason, we've implemented a new visitation restriction policy limiting visitors to healthy adults 18 years and older. There will be no children under 18 allowed in any of the Patient Care areas of the hospital. We are also asking that visitors be limited to two (2) at any one time in a patient’s room or in the patient care area.
We want to do everything possible to provide the best, most comprehensive and compassionate care to your loved ones. We know this is also what you desire.
Thank you for understanding and honoring these requests.
