Please do not visit if you have a cold, influenza, or other contagious disease.
Visitors are not permitted to sit or sleep on patient or vacant beds.
Shirt and shoes are required at all times.
Visitors may not stay overnight, unless it is deemed to be in the patients best interest and is
approved by the charge nurse.
Alcoholic beverages are not permitted.
Visitors exhibiting loud or disorderly behavior will be asked to leave.
BCMH is a tobacco-free facility. This includes cigarettes and smokeless tobacco such as snuff and
