Thermal Scanning
We are now using thermal scanning to check all approved visitors for fever. To protect the health and safety of our patients and our workforce, you must also protect your own health to help prevent the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19).
- WMCHealth protocols during this time require that all visitors are fever-free for at least 72 hours before entering the hospital.
While a fever is a symptom of COVID-19 – it can also be a symptom of many other illnesses. If you are concerned about your fever, please reach out directly to your primary care physician. We will continue to scan any approved visitors for fever. Once you are fever free for 72 hours and without symptoms of illness, you can return for screening, and then visitation after screening.
While visitor restrictions are in place there are other methods to facilitate communication:
- Phone
- Facetime
- We are happy to work with your loved one on this.
