For the safety of patients, Sarah Bush Lincoln requests that visitors be healthy with no symptoms of cold, flu or other illnesses. In the Women & Children’s Center, no one under the age of 18 will be permitted to visit unless they are siblings or parents of the patient being visited.
In an effort to provide an environment that promotes healing, is safe, and is comfortable, Sarah Bush Lincoln supports a flexible visitor policy. Our patients control their own visitor flow. Patients may appoint a “support person” who helps fulfill their wishes. Patients may also identify persons they wish to be admitted as visitors.
You may recognize an employee from any Sarah Bush Lincoln entity: Sarah Bush Lincoln Health Center, any SBL clinic, Lincolnland Home Care or Hospice or Lincolnland Home Medical. Your kind words let us know that we are achieving our goal of excellent service.

The following will provide you and your family members the information you'll need throughout your stay. More detailed information is available in your patient welcome guide. If you have further questions, don't hesitate to ask. We want you to be informed about your care, comfortable with your surroundings and pleased with your service.
Please check with your nurse about personal items that you can have during your stay or that could be provided for your use. Valuables, cash and jewelry should not be kept in your room during your stay. If you cannot send these items home for safe keeping, ask your nurse how to have them secured until you go home.
You can leave the Health Center after your doctor discharges you and you receive instructions either from your doctor or a nurse.
