The hospital was featured in an award-winning Washington Post Magazine article, "Quarantined," on Dec. 10, 2006, by Leah Y. Latimer, former staff writer and author.

The unadvertised event drew more than 150 people. Latimer said she plans more lectures around the area, based on her continuing research and 110+ interviews.

The hospital was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.[12]
