GREELEY, Colo. (Nov. 13, 2020) – To create a safe and secure environment for our patients and our health care workers during the COVID-19 outbreak, visitors will no longer be allowed in any Banner Health Northern Colorado location, effective Monday, November 16. This includes outpatient and ambulatory locations, such as: clinics, urgent cares, imaging centers, surgery centers and occupational health services locations. We understand this will be challenging, but we’re committed to take the necessary precautions to protect our patients, health care workers and the community.

There are three exceptions to the visitor restriction at hospitals:

• Pediatric patients (under the age of 18) may have one adult visitor with them.
• Laboring mothers may have one support person with them.

Visitors are subject to a health screening at all locations to ensure they are not exhibiting symptoms of respiratory illness.
