UP Health System Imposes Visitor Restrictions

All three of the UP Health System hospitals are restricting visitors because of a high level of respiratory illnesses and influenza.

Visitors who are suffering from cough, fever, runny nose, sore throat, vomiting and or diarrhea will not be allowed to see patients at UP Health System Portage, Bell or Marquette.

In the Family Birthing Center, visitors are limited to parents, labor coaches, and grandparents; and in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, visitors are limited to parents.

Restrictions will remain in effect until further notice.
