Updates to Our Mask Policy
Based on the recent changes to the CDC masking guidelines, and monitoring Reno County’s community COVID-19 levels, the COVID Medical Taskforce has approved the following recommendations, effective immediately.
Patients and visitors are no longer required to wear masks in our facilities.*
Vaccinated employees will no longer be required to wear a mask unless caring for an individual with suspected or known COVID-19.
Pharmaceutical representatives will be allowed back into our facilities by appointment only. Compliance with the CMS COVD-19 Vaccine regulation, as it applies to routine vendors and service professionals, will be enforced.
*The Clinic will continue to encourage masks for anyone who has had an exposure to a COVID-positive individual or who is symptomatic. Patients with COVID-like symptoms will be asked to wear a mask when scheduling a sick call visit. Masks will be available at facility entrances and available to all staff whether for personal preference or needed to care for patients.
