Patients & Visitors
Current Visitor Guidelines
Effective March 20, 2020, no visitors will be allowed at Northwest Medical Center, Oro Valley Hospital, Northwest Allied Physician clinics, Northwest Urgent Cares, Northwest Emergency Centers, and affiliated outpatient departments.
Exceptions include:
- Labor and delivery and postpartum patients will be allowed one adult visitor. The visitor must remain the same throughout the entire stay.
- NICU babies will be allowed two adult visitors. Visitors must remain the same throughout the entire stay.
- Pediatric patients in other areas of the hospital/clinics can have one parent or adult caregiver with them.
- End-of-life patients will be allowed one visitor.
- Additional visitors essential to patient care will be considered on a case by case basis (translation, discharge needs, dementia care, etc.).
Visitors will be asked screening questions by a medical professional at each entrance. If positive for the symptoms of fever, cough or flu-like symptoms, individuals will be asked not to visit patients and leave the facility.
The COVID-19 Hospital and Clinic Visitor Policy is intended to provide additional safeguards for our patients, families, visitors and caregivers through decreased exposure to individuals who may have been exposed to the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19.
Due to the changing nature of COVID-19’s presence in Arizona, this policy will be revised accordingly in response to circumstances.
At Northwest Healthcare, we understand that coming to the hospital as a patient or as a loved one's support person can be a difficult, often overwhelming experience. Whether you’re preparing for a hospital stay or stopping by to see friends and family, knowing where to go and what to bring will help make your visit less stressful. To make your experience easier, we want to provide you with helpful information you may need to plan your visit, such as what to expect, parking instructions, transportation and more.
Request Medical Records
Patients who have received care at Northwest Healthcare may request copies of their medical record/health information by contacting the hospital and requesting an Authorization for Release, Use and Disclosure of Health Records form.
