Wearing Masks at CHA

September 18, 2023

With COVID-19 cases increasing locally and across Massachusetts, CHA has reinstated our mask guidelines for  patients, staff and visitors. 

As of Monday, September 18, masks are required in all patient care areas at CHA. This means you must wear a mask anywhere that direct patient care is delivered - such as your doctor's office, lab, radiology, the emergency department, and all inpatient care areas. 

We feel strongly that masking during viral respiratory season (Flu, RSV, COVID) is an important step to protect our patients and employees from illness, especially those who are at highest risk. 

Masks will be available in the main lobbies of our three campuses and our community care center locations.

Thank you for wearing a mask when you come see us - and as always, thank you for trusting us with your health.


Thank you for choosing CHA for your health care.
