All Veterans, visitors and staff members are screened every time they enter a Lexington VA Health Care System facility.
- Do you have a fever?
- Do you have a cough?
- Have you been exposed to someone who is positive for COVID-19?
- Have you tested positive for COVID-19?
The purpose for this screening is to keep you and other people in our facility safe. If you say yes to any of the questions, it does not mean you will be kept from receiving care. It will just ensure our staff and other Veterans are being kept safe at the same time.
Masks, covering both mouth and nose, are required in all areas of our facility.
