Visitor policy

While patients are very busy when in rehabilitation, it is important to have the support of family and friends as well. Those not directly involved in the patient’s care are encouraged to call the nursing station at 541-706-6398 to find out when the patient may have free time during the day (schedules change daily), or plan on visiting after 5 p.m. Because our patients are involved in such a comprehensive program, their rest is important at the end of the day. We ask that visiting hours end by 9 p.m.

Overnight visitors

Overnight visitors are limited to those who will be directly involved in patient care at discharge and are allowed on a case-by-case basis. Children under 18 are not allowed to stay with a patient overnight. To ensure a healing environment for all patients, overnight visitors should remain in the patient’s room. They are not allowed to sleep in public areas. After 9 p.m., visitors must enter through the Emergency Department and check in with security.

RV parking

RV accommodations are first-come, first-served. The RV parking area on the St. Charles Bend campus has utility hook ups. Families are asked to call 541-706-5900 or visit Admitting in the main lobby of the hospital to fill out paperwork. Families staying in the RV park in support of our patients, must live more than 50 miles away. Patient families are provided a permit for seven days at a time. Permits are renewable simply by going back to Admitting for another week’s permit. These permits are to be placed in the window of the vehicle or RV.
