Kootenay Lake Hospital has adopted and is committed to Patient and Family Centred Care. This model of care delivery includes our patients, their families and significant others as being partners in care.  The hospital does not have restricted visiting hours.
 
As partners in care please talk to the health care team should there be any concerns. We ask all visitors to the hospital to be respectful of other patients and their families, in particular in shared rooms.
 
After 8 p.m. all family members and patient support visitors are requested to use the emergency department entrance and use the intercom system there to connect with the floor (unit) they want to visit to gain access.
