We Are Here to Safely Care for You, Now and Always

Our team remains vigilant in the fight against the COVID-19 virus, and we’re confident our unprecedented safety measures make all of our facilities extraordinarily safe places to visit and receive care.

Our Safety Plan

To help keep you and your family healthy, we’re taking extensive safety precautions at all of our facilities. As the situation evolves, these measures may change, so be sure to visit our Safety Plan page to get all the latest information about visitor guidelines, masks, social distancing, sanitation practices and more.

Visitor Guidelines

Hendricks Regional Health is still limiting access to our buildings. Unless you are a minor, require special assistance or require a companion for safe travel home because of medication or a procedure, we ask that you please come to appointments alone.

For everyone’s health and safety, we have implemented a Safety Passport program that involves screening every individual entering our facilities for COVID-19. Once screened, a passport, sticker or wristband will be provided.

Our visitor guidelines include the following:

We will allow patients to have one visitor per day (some restrictions may apply).
The visitor must be the same person for that day.
The visitor must pass a health screening and wear a mask.
ICU, Medical, Surgical and Inpatient Brownsburg visiting hours are 1PM to 8 PM.
EnMotion Recovery Care Unit visiting hours are 1PM to 7PM.

Please note:

For everyone's safety, we do not allow visitors for COVID-19 positive/pending patients at this time.
For everyone’s protection, visitors must wear a mask while in our facilities. This is an important step, because wearing masks helps control the spread of harmful viruses and diseases. Please feel free to bring your own mask — or we’re happy to provide you with one you can wear and take home.
