Frequently asked questions

Unlike MyChart, MyChart Bedside is specific to your hospital stay. It’s an application within the Inova’s MyChart portal, which activates after you are admitted into the hospital. You must have a MyChart account to connect to MyChart Bedside. Once you’re discharged, MyChart Bedside will no longer be accessible, and you will return to the standard view of MyChart.

You can track your daily schedule, view medication details, watch patient education videos, and send messages to the nursing care team. You can also complete questionnaires for your care site. Some examples would be: · 

  • Activities of daily living (ADLs)
  • Depression screening (PHQ9)
  • Mental health screening (CSSRS)
  • MRI screening
  • Prenatal and postpartum depression screening (Edinburgh)
  • Social Drivers of Health (SDOH)

Note: At this time, the meal ordering feature is currently available at Inova Fair Oaks and Inova Loudoun hospitals only.

At this time, the use of video visits, direct messages to physicians, or special requests will not be available in MyChart Bedside. If admitted patients need help, they are advised to use the call button in their hospital room.
