The Dickinson County Health System became the latest Upper Peninsula hospital on Friday to stop patient visitations in the wake of recent positive COVID-19 cases in the region.
“Dickinson County Healthcare is protecting the health and safety of our patients, employees, providers, volunteers, and visitors. These restrictions are temporary until the COVID-19 Virus situation is stabilized.”
There are a few limited exceptions, such as a spouse of a terminally-ill patient or the parent of a pediatric patient.
Earlier Friday, OSF St. Francis Hospital in Escanaba put visitations on hold, after UP Health System in Marquette and Ishpeming did the same on Wednesday.
