Visiting Hours

Visit Your Loved Ones

Visitors are encouraged to visit friends and family members. Visiting hours are 7:00 a.m. – 9:00 p.m., and we encourage you to check with admission or the main desk prior to visiting to make sure your visit occurs at the most appropriate time. Jefferson County Health Center has implemented a program on the inpatient floor entitled "Quiet Time." In an effort to improve the healing process, all patients will be provided with uninterrupted between 1:00 pm and 2:00 pm. We realize the inconvenience Quiet Time may cause our visitors, and ask that they discuss with nursing any suggestions or concerns they may have. 

Contact Us With Your Questions

If you have questions concerning visiting hours or to find the best times to visit your friends and family members feel free to call 641-472-4111.
