Valley is impacted by a nationwide shortage of IV fluids as a result of Hurricane Helene. We are watching the situation closely and working hard to conserve available supplies, but because of the shortage, we may need to reschedule non-emergency surgeries or change some of our hospital procedures. We are committed to continuing to give all patients the highest quality of care. We appreciate your understanding and hope to be back to normal operations soon.

What you need to know
While the federal public health emergency has ended, COVID-19 is still present in our community and it is still our duty to protect our patients, visitors and staff from spreading illness. Some of our pandemic-era practices have changed, but many policies are still in place as we monitor the community spread of COVID-19. We ask that you respect and follow the rules intended to protect the members of our community most at risk of getting seriously ill.
Visitor policy: two visitors are allowed in most cases:
