In response to the rapidly evolving COVID-19 pandemic, and for the protection of patients and staff, effective March 19, visiting hours at Tillsonburg District Memorial Hospital and Alexandra Hospital Ingersoll are being restricted to essential visitors only.

Essential visitors are those who are visiting a patient who is critically ill or requiring end-of-life care, or is a substitute decision maker in an instance where treatment decisions are required. All children attending the Emergency Department can have one guardian present. Those deemed as essential visitors must pass screening at the Emergency Department entrance.
