Visitation Guidelines
Effective July 22, 2024
Stony Brook Southampton Hospital values the importance of having family and visitors with patients during their stay and we are committed to creating a safe, compassionate, and healing environment for all. Here are some things to remember during your visit:
Upon arrival, visitors will be asked to provide photo identification (i.e., driver’s license, passport, green card, government-issued ID or U.S. military ID). To ensure safety and security, please wear your visitor pass at all times and makes sure it is visible. Don’t forget to check out at the lobby security desk when leaving the building.
- Each patient is allowed to have three visitors at a time between the hours of 5:30 am and 8 pm. Children 12 years and younger must be accompanied by an adult (18 years of age and older). Visitors must check out at the Security Desk in Main Lobby so that other visitors may have time with the patient. Exceptions will be made for additional visitors for patients in imminent end-of-life situations or who need compassionate care.
- Patients with cognitive impairment including developmental disabilities may have the presence of a support person throughout their stay.
All visitors are encouraged but no longer required to wear a mask throughout all buildings and facilities of Stony Brook Medicine. Visitors for patients who are COVID positive must wear a mask at all times while in the patient room.
For the safety and well-being of yourself and others, please make sure you wash your hands frequently. Please refrain from visiting if you are sick or are not feeling well.
At times staff may need to ask you to step out of the room for patient privacy, for medical care or in the event of an urgent issue. We will keep you informed when you will be able to return.
To help ensure a healing environment for all, please be respectful of other patients and visitors in the room and try to keep the noise level low.

- Emergency Department: One visitor per patient.
- Outpatient and Procedural Areas: Two visitors per patient
- Labor & Delivery: Up to two adult support persons, including a doula if requested, may accompany the patient throughout labor, delivery and the postpartum period, including recovery, until discharge to home.
- Postpartum: In addition to allowing two visitors between the hours of 8 am and 8 pm, siblings and up to two support persons (to be identified by the patient upon admission) are permitted. Siblings, accompanied by an adult, are permitted between the hours of 11 am and 8 pm. Siblings and the support persons are not included in the two-visitor count.

No Smoking
An abstract (from the Latin "referre" - to report, to report) is a small written work devoted to a certain topic, a review of sources in a certain direction. Usually the purpose of an abstract is to collect and systematize knowledge on a specific topic 500 word essay or problem. The topic of the essay should captivate, first of all, the student himself, because he will have to work hard on its disclosure. Topics for essays are usually suggested by teachers. The student chooses an interesting topic for him from the general list and coordinates his choice with the teacher.
