How to know if you need to go to the Emergency Department.
In the age of COVID, deciding when to seek treatment and where to seek treatment can be a challenge. Some people may even find themselves afraid to go to a hospital, an outpatient center or a physician’s office, even when it’s necessary. Let us help you stay healthy and find the care that is right for you. LEARN MORE
Masking Guidelines
Our top priority is the health and safety of our staff, patients and community. WHS does not currently require patients, visitors or team members to wear masks inside a WHS facility. Patients, visitors, and staff may choose to continue to mask if they feel comfortable doing so and masks will continue to be available in our patient-facing facilities. Masking is encouraged for those who are unvaccinated, at high risk or immunocompromised individuals or for those caring for someone who is at high risk or immunocompromised.
Masking is mandatory for patients and staff when we are caring for someone who is COVID positive or COVID suspect.
