COVID-19

Our commitment to your safety

We have taken significant steps to ensure that we have the capacity to safely care for patients with COVID-19 and to care for those who need our help for other reasons. We treat each on separate dedicated units with dedicated staff. As Tucson’s community hospital, we want to make sure that all your health care needs are being met during this time – like they have for the past 75 years.

We are committed to your safety.

If you are having chest pain, signs and symptoms of a stroke, abdominal pain, or other urgent or emergent issues – please seek treatment immediately. Do not wait for care.

This page is dedicated to let our patients know how we are taking care of them during this historic time, along with new procedures, tips and policies.
