The safety of our patients, staff and visitors is a top priority for Pembroke Regional Hospital.
All areas of the hospital are thoroughly cleaned frequently by our staff. Hand sanitizer dispensers are available throughout the hospital.
Passive Screening Please note that our hospital has now transitioned from active to passive screening at all entrances.
This means that:
Effective April 10, 2024, masks are encouraged but are no longer mandatory at Pembroke Regional Hospital.
PRH will continue to be a mask friendly space where those who prefer to wear a mask will have the option to do so and masks will be readily available at all hospital entrances and within each department.
In addition, to ensure patients feel comfortable receiving care at PRH, those who would prefer that a member of our care team wear a mask, can simply make the request. The only exceptions to the new masking policy are as follows:
And please note that, in the event of a respiratory illness outbreak, masking will be reinstated in the impacted area for the duration of the outbreak.
Please note that there are currently no outbreaks.
Creating a safe environment for patients and health care workers during a COVID-19 or respiratory illness outbreak is necessary.
Please review the following visitor requirements.
If you have any questions, please speak with a member of the care team. Thank you!
