Health care workers, volunteers, contractors and visitors may be required to wear medical masks in patient care areas at our health care facilities.
Patient care areas include waiting rooms, resident rooms, treatment rooms or lobbies and hallways that patients, residents or clients access for care or services. They also include other locations where care is provided, such as home and community care settings (including a client’s home), waiting rooms and ambulatory care clinics. It does not include locations such as administrative areas or private offices which are not generally accessed by patients, residents or clients.
