Decatur County Hospital is open to care for your needs even during these uncertain times. Beginning this week, Governor Reynolds implemented new regulations which allow us to resume delivering exceptional care, close to home in our Outpatient Clinic. If you had a previously scheduled appointment with one of our providers, we will be contacting you to set up a new appointment.
Decatur County Hospital will be accepting hand sewn face masks. The following YouTube video and PDF give you the instructions for the masks we prefer. If you are able to donate factory-made personal protective equipment (N95 masks, gowns or face shields), we will accept those as well.
As we navigate our evolving safety protocols due to COVID-19, we want to clarify our visitor policy.
