Several weeks ago, we implemented guidelines that allowed for no masking in our healthcare facilities in non-patient or non-guest-facing departments if the transmission level was yellow (moderate) or blue (low).
Please note the status changes to the following counties: Auglaize County dropped from red to orange (substantial), Clark County rose to red (high), Darke County rose to orange (substantial), Montgomery County rose to red (high), Preble County rose to orange (substantial), and Shelby County rose to orange (substantial).
Because of the higher levels of transmission of COVID-19, healthcare facilities located in the following counties must mask at all times:
- Auglaize County
- Butler County
- Clark County
- Darke County
- Greene County
- Miami County
- Preble County
- Montgomery County
- Warren County
Please note that this applies only to healthcare facilities. This guidance doesn’t currently apply to administrative facilities, such as Prestige, Woodman, ASB, etc.
