Visitors in the hospital from 7 p.m. until 7 a.m. Monday through Friday and 24 hours on the weekends and holidays must obtain a badge from the ParkView Information/Security Desk. Individuals in the hospital prior to 7 p.m., but staying for the evening or overnight are asked to go to the information desk to pick up a badge. Visitors accompanying Emergency Department patients will be issued a temporary badge. Visitor badges may be obtained at any time and extended badges are available.

A permanent visitor badge system was started  to assure the safety and security of our patients, visitors, staff and physicians. The badge includes the visitor’s photo and in bold capital letters identifies the person as a VISITOR, VENDOR or OFFICIAL (with an oversight or regulatory agency). The badge includes the issue date, visitor name and hospital department they are visiting.
