Visitor information

HonorHealth has developed visitation guidelines to protect our patients, caregivers and visitors and limit the spread of COVID-19. The visitation levels – restricted, concerned, cautious and stable – are based on the latest COVID-19 data in Arizona and public health guidance.

Thank you for your understanding. The safety of our patients, visitors and employees is our top priority. Learn more about our safety measures.

Please note: Visitors will be screened and badged and are required to wear a mask that covers the nose and mouth at all times while in our facilities. If you do not have a mask, the hospital will provide one for you. Bandanas, neck gaiters, single-ply fabric masks, valve masks or similar face coverings are not permitted.

Medical center visitor guidelines

John C. Lincoln, Deer Valley, and Scottsdale Osborn, Shea, Thompson Peak and Sonoran Crossing

We are taking extra precautions with the safety of patients, visitors, and staff in mind. Visitors are limited to one designated person per patient for the duration of the patient’s stay. All approved visitors must check in to receive a visitor badge. This badge must always be visible.

Other family members or friends of the approved visitor are not permitted to enter the facility or to wait in lobbies, chapels, cafeteria, and/or any other area within the hospital.

Visitors will be screened upon entry and allowed access to the facility only one time per day. Once you leave you may not return until following day.
We strongly encourage visitors to observe appropriate hand hygiene guidelines. Gloves are not permitted.
The patient you’re visiting will also need to wear a mask at all times while you’re in their room.
No visitors under age 12 are permitted.

Below is more detailed information on our current visitor guidelines:

Hospitalized patients (inpatients): Visiting hours are from 3:00-7:30 p.m. daily. We encourage visitors to spend time visiting with the patient in their room for the duration of the visit. We ask that visitors not spend time in hallways, cafeteria, chapel or lobbies.
