WMC Restricts Visitor Access
Patient Restrictions
With an abundance of caution due to the COVID-19, WMC is temporarily restricting visitors and vendors entering our facilities. We stress, there have been no cases of confirmed coronavirus in West Virginia, but based on CDC recommendations, our current restrictions include the following:
INPATIENT PATIENT VISITORS (Floors 4, 5, 7 and 8)
Patients will be limited to one visitor at a time with the exception of Obstetrics which will allow for 2 visitors at a time during normal visiting hours (10 am-8pm).
SKILLED CARE VISITORS (Floors 6)
Due to the potential impact to elderly patients, skilled care visitors will be prohibited in most cases unless medically necessary as directed by the physician or nursing staff.
VENDORS/SALES REPRESENTATIVES
Vendors and sales representatives are not permitted to visit hospital departments except for delivery of supplies for required immediate patient care.
