Visiting and COVID-19
Guelph General Hospital has restrictions in place that limit general visitors to control the spread of COVID-19 and keep our patients, staff, hospital environment and community safe.
In certain circumstances, key individuals who are closest to the patient and play an active role in their care and well-being may be permitted to visit. These individuals will be called “essential care partners.”
