For Your Safety

The safety of our patients and our staff is our priority.

When you Arrive at LCH:

  • Every person who comes in to an LCH facility will be asked to wear a mask that covers their mouth and nose upon arrival.

  • The Member Relations Specialist (MRS) will ask a series of questions related to COVID-19 symptoms.

  • At this time, we ask that you please come alone to your appointment. Patients who require additional assistance, such as children, patients with special needs, or elderly patients, can come to their appointments with one support person.

Thank you for your continued understanding as we work together to fight COVID-19.

Stay up-to-date with current safety guidelines for you and your family: visit www.CDC.gov/coronavirus for more information.  Read our Patient FAQ about common COVID-19 questions as of January 18th, 2022. The CDC and Pennsylvania Department of Health continue to require wearing of masks in health care settings, whether or not you are vaccinated. Thank you for wearing a mask during your visit to our health centers!
