COVID-19 ALERT

Infections are rapidly increasing

in Central Vermont

SAFETY IS OUR TOP PRIORITY

CVMC has systems and protocols to assure that our patients, Woodridge residents, and

staff are safe during a surge in cases.

Most recently, we have:

Restricted visitation to our facilities.

Doubled the number of Covid-19 tests CVMC is offering.

Weatherized the drive-through clinic where the majority of our Covid testing takes

place, allowing us to tackle the pandemic throughout the winter.

As always, we continue to screen all staff, patients, and visitors for signs and symptoms of

Covid-19, and require patients and staff to wear masks.

PREVENT THE SPREAD OF COVID-19 THIS HOLIDAY SEASON:

As the holidays approach, family traditions that involve travel, gatherings, and celebrations

become more common. This year, we encourage everyone to consider modifying those

traditions to be Covid-safe.

DISTANCE YOURSELF FROM OTHERS

Stay home and observe state restrictions on social gatherings and travel. Stay at least

six feet apart from people you do not live with.

WEAR A MASK

When you’re in public, indoors with people you don’t live with or outside when you

cannot always keep six feet apart.

WASH YOUR HANDS FREQUENTLY

Use soap and hot water, or alcohol-based hand sanitizers.

WE’RE HERE WHEN YOU NEED US:

IF YOU HAVE FLU-LIKE SYMPTOMS: Stay home and contact the CVMC Covid-19

Hotline at 802-371-5310 to determine if a test is needed (Mon-Fri from 8 am-5 pm and
