Because of the evolving situation surrounding COVID-19, Hardin Memorial Hospital-Kenton (OhioHealth) launched a temperature screening process Monday, March 23, at 5 p.m.
Screening stations will be put in place at all entrances.
All OhioHealth associates, care providers, patients and those visitors (who fall under exceptions, i.e., end of life situations) coming into an OhioHealth care site will be required to have their temperature taken as part of the COVID-19 screening process.
Associates, care providers and visitors will not be allowed to enter the building if their temperature is above 100 degrees.
If a patient's temperature is over 100 degrees, they will be given a mask and taken to the appropriate area for care.
