Even if you’re vaccinated, you must still wear a face mask when you come for care, bring someone for care, or to visit a hospital

Face mask recommendations keep evolving as the pandemic continues. However, health care facilities still require face mask use – and that includes Lehigh Valley Health Network (LVHN) and Coordinated Health facilities. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has consistently maintained that patients and visitors need to wear face masks in all health care facilities.

“We are seeing more people arrive at our facilities for care or to accompany a patient who are not wearing a face mask, and we want to get out the word that face masks are still required at all Lehigh Valley Health Network (LVHN) and Coordinated Health facilities that provide care,” says Susan Lawrence, Senior Vice President, Ambulatory and Post Acute Services, LVHN.

If you are coming to an LVHN or Coordinated Health site for an appointment or visiting someone in one of our hospitals, bring a face mask from home and wear it during your visit.

Here are all the LVHN and Coordinated Health locations you must bring and wear a face mask:

  • Lehigh Valley Health Network hospitals
  • Lehigh Valley Physician Group practices
  • Coordinated Health hospitals
  • Coordinated Health practices
  • All LVHN and Coordinated Health rehabilitation centers
  • All LVHN and Coordinated Health locations that provide health care

Thank you for protecting those who may be more vulnerable to COVID-19 by wearing your face mask in our facilities.
