When to Wear Face Masks in the COVID-19 Vaccine Era

As more people are vaccinated for COVID-19 and rules are relaxed about masks, you probably wonder, “Where do I need to wear a mask?”

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention still states that visitors coming into a health care setting should wear a mask, regardless of vaccination status.

Lehigh Valley Health Network (LVHN) and Coordinated Health locations continue to require face coverings, whether you are coming in for care, accompanying a patient for care or visiting a patient.

Here’s a breakdown of where you need to wear face masks at LVHN locations:

• 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.
