Strong Memorial Hospital will temporarily revise its visitor policy, beginning Thursday.
News 10 NBC reports only one designated visitor will be allowed per patient. The change is in response to the increase in cases of the Omicron variant. Also, cloth masks are not allowed in any UR Medicine Hospital. Surgical masks will be provided to those who need them.
The Emergency Department is reducing from one visitor per patient to none. Two visitors per patient are allowed for pediatric patients. All visitors must be 18 or older.
