Sharp Chula Vista Medical Center

Read our updated policy for hospital visitors. Hours for support people are 8 am to 8 pm.

To reach a patient, call 619-502-5800 and ask for the patient by name.

We know how important family is at this time, and we encourage a safe environment for mothers and babies. If you plan to visit, please review our updated visitor guidelines.

Maternity patients are permitted up to 3 support people at a time, per day. A doula may be permitted in addition if prior arrangements have been made and distancing allows. Although support people and visitors are not allowed in the triage area, they may rejoin the patient when they have been admitted to Labor and Delivery.

Once the patient has delivered and is in postpartum care, only 1 support person can spend the night (must be wearing an infant identification band). Two additional visitors are permitted during preferred visitation hours from 8 am to 8 pm and may swap out.

Every patient and support person will be screened upon arrival at the Sharp Chula Vista Center for Women & Newborns.

To reach a patient's room, call 619-502-5800 and ask for the patient by name or room number.

If your loved one is staying with us, send a personalized e-card to brighten their day. Your message will be printed and hand-delivered within two business days — completely free of charge.

From snacks to flowers, our gift shop has everything you need, including balloons and delivery to patient rooms. Proceeds benefit the hospital Auxiliary, which supports programs and special amenities for our patients.

Many patient rooms at Sharp Chula Vista are private. And for added privacy and comfort, each room includes a bathroom for your exclusive use.

A patient’s designated care partner may be able to stay the night to help with the patient’s needs. If the patient is in a semi-private room, the care partner must be the same sex as the patient.

If you are staying overnight as a patient's guest, a sleeper sofa or sleep chair may be available in their room for you to sleep on.

If you would like to bring a laptop computer with you for your stay, free wireless internet connections are available throughout the hospital. We also have family lounges, vending machines, a gift shop, a rooftop café, an ATM, and a coffee shop located inside the hospital for your convenience.

Children under 12 are not permitted unless there is an exception made by the unit. We ask that children have a watchful adult present at all times. You may find it helpful to prepare your child in advance for what they might see during their visit. You can always ask your nurse to assist you in explaining various equipment and procedures.
