WELCH -

Information that Welch Community Hospital, which is a state run hospital, was ordered to take down all Christmas and holiday decorations are not true.

59News contacted administrators at the hospital on Tuesday, Dec 18.   They said that there was routine state survey being conducted this week.  The survey is made every three years and offers suggestions to improve the hospital.

Welch Community Hospital falls under the West Virginia Department of Health and Human Services.

Again, administrators said while there is a survey making recommendations, there has been no order to take down the decorations at the hospital.
