Visitor Information

Whether you are admitted to the medical center for a procedure, or come only to visit a loved one, Queen of the Valley is committed to creating a welcoming environment for everyone who enters our doors.

Patients at Queen of the Valley Medical Center need all the special care we can give them. We believe that it’s very important for patients to have contact with family and friends while they are here. You are an important part of their care.

We ask that you observe a few simple policies in the spirit of compassion for the patients, caregivers and other visitors to the Queen. The Concierge, located in the Lobby near the main medical center entrance, is available to assist you with any questions you may have about visiting with family members and friends.

Our goal is to create a welcoming environment for our visitors, while meeting the needs of our patients. All of us at Queen of the Valley Medical Center thank you for your patience and cooperation when visiting our facility.

Your supportive presence with a patient can actually cause the person harm if you are bringing contagious illness with you. Please do not visit a patient if:

  • You don’t feel well
  • You have a fever
  • You have a cold, sore throat or flu
  • You have been recently exposed to and never had chicken pox, measles or mumps

Patients have phones in their rooms. You may call the patient and “visit” if you are not feeling well.

Food and beverages may not be brought into patient rooms or waiting areas. Visitors may eat in the cafeteria on the 1st floor or out on the patio during visitor hours.
