Patients & Visitors

Chino Valley Medical Center understands visitors play a vital role in the mental well-being and recovery of patients; therefore, the visitation guidance for facilities encourages safely getting family members and loved ones to the bedside. In accordance with the California Public Health Officer Order, patients are permitted two (2) visitors per patient; aged 16 or older. During Flu season, visitors will be required to wear a hospital mask in all patient care areas.

Chino Valley Medical Center will be taking proactive steps to maintain a safe workplace for our patients and employees. With Corona virus still prevalent and the flu season in full swing, we are committed to taking steps to ensure that we respond effectively.
The following recommendation is aimed at preventing the spread of COVID 19 and Influenza in our facility, detecting cases quickly and timely and preventing it from becoming hospital acquired, and stopping transmission:

We will now require ED testing with authorized nucleic acid or antigen detection assays for COVID 19 and immunoassay for INFLUENZA A and B, on ALL patients for admission, most especially, patients coming from post- acute care (SNF, LTAC, rehab, etc…)
All visitors will be required to wear a mask while in the hospital premises, most especially when at patients’ bedside, as it is difficult to ascertain their vaccination status.

Swift identification of confirmed cases will allow us to take immediate action to remove exposure risks to our other patients and employees. It is encouraged and required that we adopt practices which protects the health of our employees, patients, visitors, and others.

Chino Valley Medical Center will allow one visitor per patient between 8:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. daily. We pause visitation from 7:00 PM – 8:00 PM during nursing shift change. All visitors will be screened and will be required to wear a mask at all times, stay in the patient room, and wash theirs hand frequently. The facility will allow two visitors for ICU patients, however only one visitor is permitted to visit at a time while the the other is asked to wait in the ICU waiting room. ER patients are permitted one visitor but they must sign in through admitting. For the safety of our patients, staff, visitors, and the community, there will be no visitors permitted for COVID-19 or isolation patients at this time.
