(KLZA)-- A daily update from Nemaha County Hospital CEO Marty Fattig on Wednesday revealed that following careful consideration, the hospital located in Auburn will open outpatient services to include elective surgeries beginning Monday, May 4.
The release said the decision was based on the hospitals desire to provide needed services to the community and a desire to provide them as safely as possible. Fattig says there is no clear and convincing scientific data not to open.
Masks must be worn by those at the hospital and social distancing must be maintained. All current visitor and staff restrictions remain in effect. All outpatients will be escorted throughout the hospital at all times.
