Visiting Safely
Reducing the risk of exposure to COVID-19 continues to be part of everything we do here. As a visitor, we’re asking for your participation in that effort. Screening all who enter CVPH, social distancing, using appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), wearing masks and meticulous hand hygiene are key components to our success in reducing the spread of the virus. However, the risk is not completely eliminated and as more people return to our facility, the importance of following these measures is greater than ever before.
- ADA service animals and approved therapy dogs are permitted. All others animals are not allowed at this time.
