Visiting Hours & Guidelines

To align with our Planetree Philosophy of Patient-Centered Care, Stamford Hospital practices the following as a community of caregivers. 

Visiting Hours by Area

• Adult Intensive Care Unit (ICU): 24/7 for immediate family only
• Mother Baby Unit: Anytime during day or evening until 8:30 PM.
• Pediatric Unit: 12:00 PM -8:00 PM. Parents may visit at any time. Children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult. Requests for overnight adult visitors (ages 18 and over) may be accommodated, if possible, in a private room setting.
• Behavioral Health Unit: Monday to Friday, 6-8 PM; weekends and holidays, 2-4 PM, 6-8 PM.

Our Culture of Quiet
Rest is an important part of the healing process. In order to promote a restful and quiet environment, we observe daily quiet hours from 8 PM. to 6 AM. Please let the patient’s care team know if there’s anything we can do to ensure his or her quiet time is restful.

Electronic Device Use
Please be courteous to those in and around a patient’s room when using electronic devices like cell phones, iPods, and handheld video games. We encourage the use of headphones when possible. If you have questions about usage, please ask a member of the patient’s care team.
