Mar 13, 2020

On Thursday, the North Valley Hospital District made the decision to stop all visitation to the Nursing Home to protect their residents.  District officials say that although there are no confirmed COVID-19 cases in the county their medical staff felt it was a prudent decision.

Additionally, they say there is now mandatory employee and visitor screening for North Valley Hospital.

They say today, NVH has tested two patients, both out of the Emergency Room.  One of the test came back negative, the other test is still pending.
