Wondering when to use a mask? Wear a mask when you are in a public setting, especially when it is difficult to stay 6 feet away from others not living in your household. You should even wear a mask in a restaurant or rideshare.
However, if everyone in your household is healthy, you do not need to wear a mask at home or in your personal vehicle. For more information on COVID-19 and masks, visit: https://bit.ly/CDC-WearingMasks.
Never ignore symptoms that may be indicative of a serious health problem.
We have taken the necessary precautions to make our facility a safe place to receive care at this time. Please do not ignore health concerns – we are here for all your urgent needs.
