Greenwich Coronavirus: Hospital Changes Visitation Policy

GREENWICH, CT — Greenwich Hospital announced this week it will reduce the amount of visitors allowed at the hospital due to "increased [coronavirus] numbers in the state and region."

Magaly Olivero, a spokesperson for the hospital, said patients will only be allowed one visitor per day from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. beginning Monday. Patients were previously allowed more than one visitor if they swapped in and out during that timeframe, Olivero said. (To sign up for Greenwich breaking news alerts and more, click here.)
