SMDC Changes Its Visitor Policy

Because of the high number of H1N1 cases in the Northland, St. Mary's Medical Center has changed its visitors policy.  Only immediate family members with no flu symptoms are allowed to visit the hospital.  SMDC says this is to protect their patients.  The hospital will start posting signs by the end of the week.

St. Luke's and the hospitals in Virginia and Hibbing have no restrictions for visitors at this point.
