COVID-19 - What You Need to Know
ACCESS TO THE CARE YOU NEED, WHEN YOU NEED IT
Our goal is to ensure you have the most up-to-date information available
about COVID-19. Given that COVID-19 is ever-developing, we will regularly
update the information on our website to ensure it is current. We continue
to partner with state and local agencies, and our own infection control
team to provide you with the highest level of care in an environment of
absolute safety – at our hospitals and clinics.
We remain incredibly proud of our dedicated physicians and staff, who responded
to COVID-19 with urgency and expert professionalism throughout the evolving
circumstances—and never wavered on Confluence Health's commitment
to care for our community.
Additionally, masks are required at all of our outpatient facilities. If you are visiting for an appointment, you will be asked to wear a mask. If you do not have your own mask, one will be provided prior to you entering the building for your appointment. Please click here for homemade mask patterns if you are interested in making your own.
Please remember that your safety and well-being is important to our health care team —and please know that your questions and concerns will be handled with care.
