Kingman, Arizona, April 6, 2020 – To limit the spread of COVID-19 in our community, KRMC has implemented strict visitor restrictions―including at the KRMC emergency room (ER). At this time, children under 12 who are not patients are restricted from entering the ER.

Please do not bring children to the ER unless they need emergency medical care. Children who are not needing medical care cannot enter the facility.

With visitor restrictions, KRMC has no way to accommodate unattended children while their parent or caregiver is receiving medical attention.
