Hospital Policies

Required notifications for our Patients

The Washington State Department of Health (DOH) requires that hospitals post select policies related to access to care to our website.

Klickitat Valley Health (KVH) provides quality, compassionate health care to everyone that comes to us for care. Based on our Mission to provide care to all and our core values of compassion, dignity, justice, excellence, and integrity, all patients and visitors who are receiving care, services or support from KVH and its affiliated clinics and services are treated with respect and equality. Each interaction will be free from discrimination based on age, race, color, creed, ethnicity, religion, national origin, marital status, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, disability, veteran or military status, or any other basis prohibited by federal, state or local law.

Below are copies of the policies that KVH has in place at this time that are relevant to the DOH’s request. Also below is our statement regarding reproductive health services.
