Visiting Hours

If you are an immediate family member, relative or friend of one of our patients, you are welcome to be on campus during visiting hours from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., seven days a week. One parent or guardian is also invited to stay overnight, with additional screening.

Guidelines

The health and safety of our patients, families, visitors, volunteers and staff are of the highest importance. Anyone who is ill or has been exposed to a contagious disease is not allowed to visit any area of the campus. To maintain a safe environment, we ask anyone 18 and older who is entering Scottish Rite for Children for any reason to show a photo ID. The following are acceptable forms of identification:

  • State-issued driver’s license or ID
  • Passport
  • School ID

If you do not have a photo ID, we’ll be happy to take your photo to provide you with photo identification during your visit.

Check-In Locations

When you arrive at the Dallas campus, please check in at the front desk located at the Main Entrance on the first floor any day of the week; or the Registration Desk on the Clinic Level during clinic hours, Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Please Note: All visitors under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or adult guardian while visiting the hospital.

Displaying Your Visitor Badge

Every family member or guardian visiting Scottish Rite for Children with the patient must wear a visitor badge during their visit. The badge is good for the day of your visit only. Each day you visit, you will need to present your photo ID and obtain a new visitor’s pass to wear during that visit. If for any reason you do not get a pass when you first arrive, please try to do so as soon as possible because visitors without a pass will be stopped by any member of our staff, security team or volunteers. While visiting the Scottish Rite, please inform your child’s care team if you see someone without a visitor’s pass or ID badge.
