Visitation must be allowed for all residents of nursing homes at all times.

Assisted living facilities, comprehensive personal care homes, dementia care homes, and residential health care facilities are required to return to pre-pandemic visitation hours.

Facilities shall ensure that visits are conducted as safely as possible in accordance with CDC safety recommendations.

Please check with a specific facility for visiting hours and policies.
