visitor restrictions
Entry rules enforced
Visitor restrictions are rules limiting who can enter a facility and under what conditions.
Hospitals impose visitor restrictions during outbreaks or for patients in intensive care.
Prisons maintain strict visitor restrictions year-round.
The term became widely familiar during the COVID-19 pandemic, when nursing homes and hospitals severely limited or banned visits: Due to visitor restrictions, she couldn't see her father in his final days.
