Hunterdon Health Makes Masks Optional at All Facilities

Beginning March 28, 2023, in all Hunterdon Health facilities, masks will be optional for visitors, patients, and staff, with some exceptions. Masking will be required where it is part of the routine infection prevention process.  For example, staff caring for COVID-19 positive and COVID-19 suspected patients will be required to wear masks.

If visitors or patients have symptoms of an infectious illness, had a positive COVID-19 test within the past 10 days, or had exposure to COVID-19 infection, they will be required to wear a mask.

If a COVID-19 resurgence calls for a return to masking, Hunterdon Health says it may change these protocols in the future.
