COVID-19

Masking Policy

Masking is optional for patients, visitors and MetroHealth employees.

Due to the vulnerability of patients in the Blood and Marrow Transplant Unit, universal masking remains required upon entry, and masking will remain in effect for any acutely affected COVID patients.

Masks are also highly recommended for those who have respiratory symptoms or have been in close contact with someone with COVID-19.

Vaccinations and Boosters

New COVID-19 vaccines are now available by appointment only at one of our convenient pharmacies for patients 12 and older. Schedule through MyChart or call 440-59-COVID (440-592-6843).

More information coming soon for patients 6 months to 11 years old.

If you have questions about the COVID-19 vaccine or any other immunizations, talk with your primary care provider. You can also reach out to our Pharmacy at 216-957-6337 (MEDS).
