Leesburg, VA — December 15, 2014 — Due to increased flu-like illness activity at Inova Loudoun Hospital, today, December 15, Inova Loudoun Hospital has instituted temporary changes to their visitation policy.
The temporary measures apply to visitors until further notice:
“These temporary measures will help protect against influenza infection of the most vulnerable among us, including inpatients with compromised immune systems as well as our caregivers,” observed Dr. Loring Flint, Inova’s Chief Medical Officer. “We appreciate everyone’s consideration and cooperation as, together, we work to assure the health and safety of our community during flu season.”
If and when other Inova hospitals experience the same increase in flu-like illness activity, they too will implement temporary visitation measures.
