Universal Masking

The CDC's new masking guidance for fully vaccinated people does not apply to healthcare settings. We are continuing to wear masks during all patient care out of an abundance of caution and to protect our patients and each other.

Screening and Access

  • We continue to screen everyone who enters our facilities for symptoms consistent with COVID-19, per CDC guidelines.
  • Please utilize alternative methods of communication, including technology, with patients as much as possible. Signage is being posted around the facility notifying visitors and the community of these new restrictions and guidelines.


Thank you for your continued understanding and cooperation as we work to maintain a safe environment for our patients and team. We want to reassure our communities that it is safe to come to the hospital should you or your family need care. 

Continued Limited Access

  • The main entrance to the hospital is open from 6 am – 5 pm, Monday through Friday.
  • ​The Emergency Department entrance is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
