How are we keeping you safe?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:

Visitors are no longer required to show proof of vaccination upon entry.Patients who feel unwell are asked to ensure that the health care provider at their appointment is aware of their symptoms.Visitors are directed to return home if they feel unwell or have symptoms of any illness that may be contagious.
Masking at PRHEffective 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:

Patients attending outpatient settings should wear a mask if feeling unwell.Caregivers and visitors should follow the direction of signage posted at the entrance to a patient’s room and wear a mask and/or other safety equipment as indicated.All caregivers and visitors who are feeling unwell should delay their visit.
 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.
