MILFORD, MA — Following a months-long closure due to the coronavirus pandemic, the Milford Regional Medical Center will reopen its doors to the public on Tuesday.

On March 18, the hospital mostly closed to non-medically necessary visitors and patients. With the lobby closure, all visitors and patients were entering through the Hyman Hill Diagnostic Center side of the hospital along Prospect Street. That entrance will be closed to visitors on Tuesday.

The new lobby hours will be 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. on weekdays, and 2 to 7 p.m. on weekends. Visiting hours are 2 to 7 p.m., and patients can have only one visitor during those hours.
