How to make a Face Mask

We are welcoming fabric masks from our community as we prepare for COVID-19.

Thank you so much for your interest and care.

Orders for standard/disposable masks are on long back-orders, due to both demand and supply chain issues. Other hospitals across the country are reporting the same supply concerns.

 

According to the CDC, fabric masks are a crisis response option when other supplies have been exhausted.

 

“Prior to modern disposable masks, washable fabric masks were standard use for hospitals,” said Dawn Rogers, MSN, RN, FNP-C, Patient Safety & Infection Prevention Office. “We will be able to sterilize these masks and use them repeatedly as needed. While it’s less than ideal, we want to do our best to protect our staff and patients during this pandemic.”
