Explanation:

The correct phrase that should replace the incorrect phrase in bold should be “restricts the number of visitors”. It is to be noted that the subject [the hospital] in the sentence is singular which should be associated with the singular verb, hence the correct form of verb should be “restricts”. Moreover, the expression "the number of" always takes a plural noun hence, option (b) becomes the most viable choice to replace the phrase given in bold to make the sentence grammatically correct.
