COVID-19 Updates

Last updated Thursday, March 19, 2020

The health and safety of our patients and teammates is our top priority. Because we treat some of health care’s most vulnerable patients, we are keeping a close eye on this situation and reinforcing the extensive infection control practices already in place to protect them. We are in lockstep with the CDC and follow its guidance. We have also created U.S. and international task forces to review our response as the situation develops.
