About Coronavirus – COVID 19
Abrazo remains focused on patient safety for our community. Hospital visitors are limited to one support person for childbirth or end-of-life patients, and one support person for special circumstances where the support will benefit patient care. Visitation policy can change based on ongoing COVID trends, we appreciate your understanding. Please check with individual facilities for current restrictions.
Anyone entering our hospitals must abide by facility requirements for COVID symptom screening upon entry, hand hygiene and wearing a mask at all times. Those not meeting the precautions criteria will not be permitted to enter the hospital.
We’re here for you, your family and our community.
Abrazo Community Health Network works closely with the Department of Public Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to respond to any potential novel coronavirus (COVID-19)
cases in our area. As the COVID-19 situation evolves, we take every precaution to keep you, your family, our staff and our community safe.
Our COVID SAFETY Standards
COVID SAFETY standards are built upon deep clinical expertise from previous crises and on-going management of COVID-19, as well as continuous incorporation of CDC, CMS and State recommendations. They are a rigorous combination of infection prevention
processes, training, testing, personal protective equipment and technology. Our COVID SAFE standards includes five components:
- Distinct COVID SAFETY and COVID CARE Zones – separate areas with clear signage and protocols
- Rigorous Physician and Staff Protocols – daily screening, universal masking and access to PPE
- Heightened Sanitization – enhanced cleaning of surfaces and plenty of hand sanitization stations
- Access to COVID-19 Testing – testing for patients, physicians and staff who require it
- Precautions for Patients and Visitors – provision of face masks, hand sanitizer and physical distancing
