Regional Medical Center Masking Update
January 18, 2022 in News, Regional Medical Center
Due to recent studies and the increasing COVID-19 infections in our community, Regional Medical Center (RMC) is asking all patients, visitors, and staff to wear surgical masks while at our facility and clinics effective immediately.
Surgical masks will be available upon entry to our facilities. Please replace your cloth mask with the provided mask when you arrive.
The highly transmissible omicron variant is present and active in our communities. COVID-19 vaccines remain the best tool to help people from COVID-19, slow transmission, and reduce the chance of new variants emerging. Get vaccinated against COVID-19. If you’re fully vaccinated, get a booster when you are eligible. Vaccines are readily available in our community. Visit regmedctr.org/covid-vaccine-update to find resources and eligibility information.
If you are sick, stay home. Cover your cough and wash your hands frequently. Wear a mask when indoors as the entire state of Iowa has a high level of COVID-19 transmission at this time.
