Solar Eclipse Special Information
- Our emergency department and our inpatient areas will remain open, and we will be able to care for patients as normal.
- Traffic is expected to be exceptionally high on I-30, so if the hospital entrances from the I-30 access road are blocked, people can still get to us from Military Road by taking Magnolia to N. East St. or from Carpenter St by taking Market St. to McNeil St or by taking Main St.
- We know that people are excited about viewing the eclipse, but we have to reserve our parking lots for patients, hospital visitors and our team members. They are not open to the public for eclipse viewing purposes.
- Since we will have additional visitors in the area, we ask that everyone help us protect our patients, visitors and staff by using the main hospital entrance and/or emergency department entrances. All other entrances will be secured and locked. The medical office buildings will be accessible from only their main entrances as well.
