Photo: WINA CHARLOTTESVILLE (WINA) – UVa Hospital today (Tuesday) has loosened up some visitation policies tightened last year because of COVID-19. Bush Bell with UVa Health’s patient experience team says in-patients can now have two visitors at bedside — and they must be 18 or older. One designated Care Partner may stay in the room overnight. Patients may have two visitors in procedural areas and in the emergency department. In outpatient clinics, patients can have one visitor. In the Transitional Care hospital, patients may have two bedside visitors from 9am-to-7pm… and one designated Care Partner may stay in the room overnight.
