As Hilo Medical Center experiences an influx of COVID-19 patients, the hospital has implemented a no visitor policy for the Emergency Department until further notice.

Exceptions include pediatric patients 18 years and below, and for highly critical, end-of-life situations.

Regular visiting hours from 11:00 am to 7:00 pm for inpatient visitors remains in place at the moment, however the hospital is assessing the need to modify those polices as they manage the current COVID outbreak. As a reminder, in patient visitors are required to wear masks at all times. Additionally, they are not allowed to bring outside food and beverages into the hospital as eating and drinking in patient rooms is not allowed.
