  • Required facial coverings for everyone – medical staff, patients, visitors – while in hospitals and Tanner Medical Group practices;
  • Masks provided to wear during your visit;
  • Hand sanitizing stations at all entries, exits and other critical areas within hospitals and Tanner Medical Group practices; social distance accommodations during patient flow, including appointment scheduling;
  • Rigorous and frequent cleaning and sanitizing of Tanner facilities, equipment and surfaces throughout the system, including a robot utilizing ultraviolet light;
  • Personal protective equipment (PPE) and hand hygiene protocols, established by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), for all healthcare staff;
