UPDATED MASK POLICY | Face covering and masking is now optional for our patients, providers, visitors, and care team members and are no longer required in our EmergeOrtho – Blue Ridge Region offices.

With our current transmission rate and all signs pointing to COVID’s effect remaining low for the foreseeable future, we feel comfortable making the transition to masking being optional for our patients, providers, visitors, and care team members in our EmergeOrtho – Blue Ridge Region offices.

If the level of transmission rises once again in our region or there are significant changes in the guidance from the state, federal health officials, we may need to reinstate the mask mandate. However, the number of cases remains low in our area and we hope to see this continue.
