Sentara Martha Jefferson (the other Charlottesville hospital) has updated their visitor policies as well yesterday
The main change I note is:
At Sentara, the safety of our team members and patients is our highest priority.
No visitors are allowed in our Emergency Departments except:
Patients with altered mental status, developmental delays or behavioral health concerns may have 1 visitor.
Minors under the age of 18 may have 1 visitor, either a parent or a guardian.
Patients who are critically ill or critically injured may have 1 visitor.
