Visitation for most units that is desired by the patient is encouraged and not restricted to specific hours, with the exception of the Family Birthing Center at Sentara Martha Jefferson Hospital. However, the physician or charge nurse may request visitation restrictions for the safety/well-being of the patient, visitors or other patients on the unit.
If you are visiting our Family Birthing Center at Sentara Martha Jefferson Hospital please read our family visitation policy.
Visitor Guidelines:
- All visitors are required to stop at reception, share a photo ID along with their destination, and receive a photo visitor badge.
- Visitors will only be allowed if they do not have symptoms of respiratory infection (fever, cough, shortness of breath).
