    Visiting the Sick

    It is misdirected kindness, a false idea of courtesy, that leads to much visiting of the sick. Those who are very ill should not have visitors. The excitement connected with receiving callers wearies patients at a time when they are in the greatest need of quiet, undisturbed rest.MHH 120.5

    To convalescents or patients suffering from chronic disease, it is often a pleasure and a benefit to know that they are kindly remembered, but this assurance conveyed by a message of sympathy or by some little gift will often accomplish more than a personal visit, and without danger of harm.MHH 120.6
