Attention: Family Members, Friends, and Other Visitors

November 19, 2021

Aurora Charter Oak Hospital continues to monitor the daily events surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and comply with guidance from the CDC, California State, and the LA County Department of Public Health.  

While we maintain our commitment to high-quality and compassionate care, we are keenly aware that we must protect and maintain a safe treatment environment for our patients, family members, and staff.  We are here to support and protect each other. As such, the following procedures/restrictions remain in place:

1.       Prior to entering the hospital, all persons will be asked specific questions about their current healthcare status, including COVID-19 signs and symptoms. This screening will also include a temperature scan.  Face masks are still required for all visitors and staff members.

 2.      Outpatient services will continue as before, but patients will continue to be queried about symptoms, scanned for temperature, and required to wear a face mask while on hospital grounds.  

3.       Family visits to our hospital remain restricted.  We will continue arranging telephone and video visits to keep you and your loved ones engaged.

4.       All family therapy sessions will continue to be held via telephone.  Our therapists will continue to coordinate these appointments with family members.

5.       All vendors are still required to enter through the employee entrance and be screened for temperature. Vendor access remains limited and at the discretion of hospital management. Face masks are required.

Aurora Charter Oak Hospital strives to keep everyone who has entrusted their care to us in the safest environment possible. As information changes, we will update these procedures. We appreciate your understanding as we respond to these challenges and take the utmost care for all of our patients. 

Always check with trusted sources for the latest accurate information about COVID:

Jason Foundation Update - May, 2021

Carol Ivy, Community Liaison with Aurora Charter Oak Hospital, presented information about the Jason Foundation at the May meeting of the Mental Health & Addiction Network (MHAN), which has members from Los Angeles, San Bernardino, Riverside, and Orange Counties in Southern California. Over 23 mental health and substance abuse programs, organizations and facilities were represented at the May meeting. The majority of the participants serve both adolescent and adult clients. Carol shared the JFI goal of providing awareness about youth suicide and educational resources to the community and provided examples of some of the programs and services offered to the participants. Some of the attendees provided positive feedback (“We LOVE The Jason Foundation!”), and Carol will continue to follow up with those participants who are new to JFI as well. 

Aurora Charter Oak Hospital is pleased to announce that Carol Ivy is the new official Jason Foundation Representative for Aurora Charter Oak Hospital, taking over the reins from Steve Jennings, Director of Business Development/COO. Congratulations Carol!
