For the safety of the visitor, health care personnel, and the general public; suspected and confirmed COVID-19 patients should postpone visitation until their isolation status has been lifted.
If the patient who is COVID-19 positive requires a support person, accommodations will be made to ensure infection control and safety practices are met while balancing the needs of the patient.
We encourage patients to utilize online bill pay options or pay by phone at 970-564-2130 and call ahead if medical records are needed at 970-564-2311. Patient Financial Services (bill pay) and medical records will be available but ask that patients please call ahead if you’re needing to meet with them in person regarding records or any billing questions.
These regulations will remain in place until further notice and will be continually reevaluated. The most current information will be available on Facebook at facebook.com/SWhealthsystem and www.swhealth.org.
