Patient and Visitor Information: MedStar Washington Hospital Center

MedStar Health is committed to providing high-quality care to our patients and communities in a safe and respectful environment that supports health and healing. To ensure our hospitals and care locations are safe, caring, and inclusive, we ask that our patients and visitors adhere to our Patient and Visitor Code of Conduct detailed here.

If our Code of Conduct guidelines are not followed, patients may be asked to leave and make other plans for their non-emergency care. Visitors may be asked to leave and could be restricted from future visitation.

Every day, our providers, nurses, and associates are committed to providing the highest levels of care to our patients. Please show them the respect they deserve and that you expect as a patient or visitor. Thank you for joining us in our commitment to ensuring a safe, caring, and inclusive environment for us all.

Visiting hours each day are from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m.

All visitors are to enter through a designated hospital entrance during posted hours of operation. Designated entrances are as follows:

• Main Entrance on Hospital Center Drive

• Bus Circle Drive Entrance

• Physician Office building Entrance on Hospital Center Drive

• Cancer Institute Entrance on Hospital Center Drive

MedStar Washington Hospital Center has a new Visitor Management system.

Patients and visitors will be asked to present their driver's license or government-issued ID to a Patient/Guest Services representative at these entrances:

• Main Entrance on Hospital Center Drive

• Bus Circle Drive Entrance

• Cancer Institute Entrance

• Emergency Room

• Labor & Delivery

• If you do not have an ID, your photo and other information will be gathered for the badge.

Patients and visitors will be issued a sticker badge with the date, time of entry, entrance location, destination, photo, and a QR code specific to the holder of the badge. The badge is to be worn on the upper part of the body, visible to others, throughout the stay. The sticker badge will then be scanned when you leave the hospital. Visitors must check out at the entrances to allow additional visitors in.

Number of visitors allowed

Children under 12 years of age are not permitted in patient care areas. Maternity patients may arrange through their nurses for older siblings to visit mom and the new baby.

Special arrangements may be made on a case-by-case basis through the Nursing Leader or Clinical Administrator.

Face masks are optional for patients and visitors who are not displaying symptoms of COVID-19 or other viruses (cough, runny nose, sneezing, etc). However, masks may be required in certain areas/rooms in the hospital.

A medical provider or patient may request that masks be worn in a patient’s room or treatment area. These requests should be respected and honored.

Face masks are available onsite for patients and visitors.
