Patients coming to Cookeville Regional Medical Center or any CRMC facilities should wear a facemask.
The Wednesday request the result of a CDC recommendation. Cloth masks will be provided to patients who do not have one, but supplies are limited.
“We are going through our donated cloth masks rather quickly at this point and are asking for the public’s help,” CEO Paul Korth said. “Patients wearing their own masks when they come is helpful if they have one. If not, we will gladly provide them with a mask.”
If you would like to donate cloth masks, please contact CRMC. You can also learn how to make cloths masks at the CRMC website.
CRMC has received donations of hundreds of cloth masks, but more are needed.
