VISITING POLICY CHANGES TO PROTECT MOMS AND NEWBORNS As a precautionary measure to protect our expectant moms and newborns, who are in the very high risk category for H1N1 (swine) flu, we are temporarily restricting our Family BirthPlace visiting policy. Visitors are asked not to bring children under 12 into the Family BirthPlace unless they are a brother or sister of a newborn and are not ill. Because children also are at higher risk of H1N1, this temporary measure is an important safeguard for moms, newborns and children alike. We appreciate your understanding.
