Visitor Restrictions

In accordance with recent guidelines from the state of California, we are limiting visitors in our facilities.

Updated Visitor Policy

Kaiser Permanente visitation policies are based on the state’s colored-tier system for COVID-19 risk for each county and are subject to change.

Health screening will continue to be conducted at many building entrances. All visitors must wear a proper face mask at all times and maintain at least six feet of distance from others while on our campus. No visitors with fever, cough, sore throat, shortness of breath, or other COVID-19 symptoms, or confirmed COVID-19 in the past 30 days are allowed to enter. If not accompanying the patient, support persons will need to wait outside our buildings. Thank you for your cooperation to reduce the spread of COVID-19.
