To ensure the protection of patients, visitors, and caregivers, everyone entering one of our Providence Alaska facilities must wear a face mask. If you do not have a mask, one will be provided to you as part of the screening process before entering.

This applies to our ministries in Anchorage, Kodiak Island, Valdez, Seward, Eagle River and the Mat-Su Valley.

Additionally, we encourage people experiencing serious health conditions to not let fear of COVID-19 prevent them from seeking life-saving care. Providence hospitals and clinics have safety measures in place and are following local, state and federal protocols to keep patients, visitors and caregivers safe.

Visitor restrictions continue to be in place; for more information, visit provhealth.org/6182GB8zj.
