Face Masks at UHD
Updated February 16, 2022
Please note that medical grade face masks are required at UHD Hospital and Clinics. UHD will provide this upon entry if you do not already have one.
Both the Minnesota Dept. of Health and the Centers for Disease Control recommend everyone wear a medical grade face mask, regardless of vaccination status, in settings that pose a high risk of COVID-19 spread or complications from COVID-19 infection, including healthcare settings.
UHD will continue to follow guidance closely and update our policies as necessary. Thank you for helping UHD continue to provide a safe environment for our patients, visitors and staff.
