Visitor Information

We know families and friends experience crises in different ways. Mental illness and addiction affect the entire family and circles of friends, not just the patient.

Cedar Hills Hospital and Outpatient Services offer family therapy sessions while patients are in treatment. For more information on these services please contact us at (503) 944-5000.

At Cedar Hills Hospital, we understand many of our patients have family and friends who want to visit their loved ones while they’re in treatment. In order to provide a secure visitation experience for everyone, please review the information below.

Visitation — New Temporary Policy

The following is in effect until further notice:

Visitors

All visitors must have the patient ID NUMBER, check in at the reception desk and place personal belongings in a locker before visiting a patient at Cedar Hills Hospital.
