As a healthcare facility, YRMC continues to follow CDC guidelines requiring that all employees and visitors wear masks to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. Masks continue to serve as a critical tool for protecting the health of our patients, employees and visitors to YRMC facilities.

We understand that Arizona lifting COVID-19 restrictions for businesses and events may initially cause some confusion. We appreciate our community’s understanding and cooperation as we continue to require the use of masks at all YRMC facilities, including all YRMC Pediatric locations.
