Lake Region Hospital announces today that effective immediately they will institute patient visitation restrictions. The restrictions are in place due to recently confirmed cases of pertussis (whooping cough) in the Fergus Falls Area.

JoAnn Bowman, RN LRH Infection Control Coordinator said, “The hospital began restricting visitations Tuesday evening after consulting with pediatricians and OB-GYN physicians at the Fergus Falls Medical Group. Lake Region Hospital is restricting patient visitation to immediate family above the age of 18 only and on the Birthing Suite Unit, visitors are restricted to the father or significant other.
