Will I be screened for symptoms of possible COVID-19 before I am allowed into the hospital?

Yes. As part of our Safe Care Commitment, Northern Light Health screens all patients, visitors, and staff on arrival for symptoms to protect them, their families, and colleagues, before they are welcomed into our hospitals and clinics.

Admitted patients are screened for symptoms daily. Outpatients are screened prior to and upon arrival, and if symptomatic, are cared for via virtual visits or evaluated in person following hospital infection control policies.
