March 13, 2020 - The John C. Fremont Healthcare District in Mariposa reports starting Monday, March 16th, when arriving at John C. Fremont Hospital, you will be questioned about symptoms while in the driveway.

If you have a life-threatening condition, you will be immediately directed to the Emergency Department.

If your condition is not life-threatening, you will be guided to the "drive-through" screening area.

Your temperature will be taken and you will be asked about respiratory symptoms.

If you do not have a fever or respiratory symptoms, you will be directed to your original destination (lab, clinic, imaging, ED, etc.).

If you have a fever and/or respiratory symptoms, you will be directed to your original destination and asked to remain in your vehicle and a nurse will come out and evaluate.

Please realize that this is being done for both your safety and that of our other patients, residents, and staff.

This process will take a few extra minutes, so please plan to arrive 15 minutes early to your appointment.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.
