Adventist Health has tightened visitor restrictions at its three hospitals to stop the spread of H1N1, also known as swine flu.

Children 15 or younger are not allowed inside, and only two visitors at a time are allowed for each patient.

Only one visitor at a time is allowed for emergency patients.

Anyone with a fever, cough or sore throat is asked not to visit.

Adventist Health operates three area hospitals: Central Valley General Hospital in Hanford, Hanford Community Medical Center and Selma Community Hospital.
