COVID-19

Your health is our priority. We have implemented new policies, workflows, and procedures to ensure we minimize exposure for both patients and staff.

To protect staff and patients, we implemented the following:

Call First Campaign – call first if you have any COVID symptoms

If you think you may have COVID, do not go directly to the ER, hospital or doctor’s office. Call first. Our healthcare providers will evaluate your symptoms and explain your best course of action. Calling ahead not only helps you, it prevents the spread and protects our community’s elderly and most vulnerable.
