INOVA Hospitals recently issued a policy limiting maternity patients to 1 visitor during the flu season. Unfortunately, this policy affects doulas, who will now be excluded from the birth team unless they are the sole support person. We believe doulas are not visitors, but are a critical part of the birth team. We believe that doulas are trained professionals who provide support before, during, and after labor. We believe they play an important role in a successful birth outcome. Please help us change INOVA's visitor policy and show support for the Doula community.

This petition started by Elizabeth Vitale and Megan Gray. We are not doulas. We are students of the Bradley Method, and patients of INOVA Loudoun's Birthing Inn. We believe in the importance of a natural birth.
