During this time of increased seasonal flu activity, OSF HealthCare Saint Francis Medical Center, UnityPoint Health’s Methodist, Proctor, and Pekin campuses, Hopedale Medical Complex, and Kindred Hospital are asking the public to voluntarily limit hospital visits.
This is a precautionary measure to protect patients, visitors, and staff from spreading the flu and other upper respiratory illnesses.
The request for the public to limit hospital visits is based on community influenza and illness data gathered by Peoria City/County Health Department with support from Tazewell County Health Department.
