- In intensive care units, to protect patients from infection risk, only one visitor from each patient's immediate family is allowed to visit for a limited time throughout the day. Visiting priority is given to first-degree relatives.
- Visiting hours in Neonatal Intensive Care Units are between 10:00 – 11:00 and 17:00 – 18:00 every day.
- Considering the critical health condition of infants, visits are permitted only to first-degree relatives (parents) with the approval of the intensive care unit doctor or nurse. Child visitors are not permitted.

The information desk officer will call the relevant intensive care unit to obtain approval from the patient's doctor or nurse and direct you to the intensive care unit with a permission slip.

- All telephone numbers for reaching the intensive care unit, along with telephone conversation and visitation hours, can be obtained from the relevant intensive care unit secretary, information desk officer, or nurse.
