Effective Monday, April 17th, St. Mary’s Health System is making masks optional* for most employees, contractors, volunteers, patients, and visitors at our clinics and hospital!
We will respect and support the decision of any employee, contractor, volunteer, patient, or visitor who wishes to continue masking and will ensure masks are readily available throughout all of our facilities.
*Masking will still be required for any individual with respiratory infection symptoms, a recent COVID infection or exposure or as otherwise required in our standard infection control plan.
While we know this is welcome news to many of you, please feel free to reach out if you have additional questions about this new policy!
