Dear Veterans -
The Veteran Health Administration (VHA) implemented a nation-wide COVID-19 Operational Plan with three standardized VHA Health Protection Levels – low, medium, and high. Implementing the COVID-19 VHA Health Protection Levels (low, medium, and high) will help Veterans and staff know what preventive steps to take based on the latest CDC data when entering a Veteran Health facility:
- Safety protocols – wearing a mask, screening, visitations, and social distancing
- COVID-19 community transmission level
- Signage is located at all Veteran health care facilities’ screening entrances
This message is to inform you that North Florida/ South Georgia Veterans Health System COVID-19 Health Protection Level has changed.
As of May 31, 2022, NF/SGVHS is operating on VHA COVID-19 Health Projection Level: HIGH.
NF/SGVHS requirements include:
- Requiring Mask at all patient care sites
- Self- screening is required
- Care team- approved visitors are welcomed. Visitation to COVID-19 positive patients is still restricted.
- Physical Distancing required.
Safe care is our mission. Details can be found on our website at https://www.va.gov/north-florida-health-care/
