Safety and Security

Masking Policy

The health and wellbeing of our patients is our first priority and why our team works so hard. Throughout the epidemic we worked with the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the federal government, and the state of Oregon to stay open and protect our patients. In accordance with federal and state regulations and CDC recommendations, Prism Health no longer requires universal masking. That is our current policy and will remain so unless regulations or CDC recommendations change. While patients, visitors, delivery personnel, and vendors are no longer required to wear a face covering, you are more than welcome to wear one. Prism Health staff will continue to wear face coverings in patient care areas, including the lobby, clinic spaces, and behavioral health offices. Anyone with upper respiratory symptoms or COVID-like symptoms will be asked to wear masks at all times while in clinic.

Security

Due to the increase of anti-LGBTQ rhetoric and safety concerns, we’ve added trauma-informed security to help our patients and on-site staff feel safe. The well-being of our patients is our top priority, and we aim to strike a balance between ensuring safety and providing a compassionate and supportive health care experience. Our intention is to create a secure environment where everyone feels protected and supported during their time at Prism Health.
