To protect patients during flu season, UHS Wilson and Binghamton General Hospitals have put visitor restrictions in place.
The current restrictions are:
- No children under the age of 14
- Anyone who has exhibited any of the following flu-like symptoms within the past 24 hours should postpone their visit to nursing units at Wilson and Binghamton General Hospitals:
- Fever
- Cough
- Sore throat
- Runny nose
- Nasal congestion
The restrictions are necessary due to an increased prevalence of the flu in the Southern Tier and are designed to minimize flu exposure to patients.
