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.
A number has been established to connect people in Hardin County with resources that they may need during the COVID-19 Emergency.
Residents of the county that are in need of non-emergency medical supplies, essential supplies, food or who are looking for mental, emotional or spiritual support may contact the Hardin County Cares hotline at 419-675-9045 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
This service is designed to connect people to resources that they are not able to access on their own. The hotline will be staffed by representatives with local information and resources to help residents access the assistance that they need.
