MDI Hospital is committed to providing a safe, thoughtful path towards normalcy as the Public Health Emergency ends on May 11th. As masking requirements begin to lift in hospitals across our state, it is with careful consideration that we take into account the unique nature of our hospital and health centers, serving a tight-knit island community of year-round residents, and in just a few short weeks, an influx of visitors from all over the world. The hospital COVID Steering Committee has been meeting regularly to discuss what this transition looks like for us as an organization, our providers, staff, and patients.
As of April 20, 2023, our masking requirements in our hospital and health centers remain unchanged, though we are looking ahead and making plans to adapt to the ‘new normal’ in the coming weeks. Please check our website and talk with your providers for any updates.
