What Astria Health is Doing

The world is facing an unprecedented challenge, with communities and economies everywhere affected by the growing COVID-19 pandemic. Our community members and local businesses are partnering together to combat the COVID-19 pandemic.

Astria Health is actively engaged in bidirectional, collaborative efforts with the Yakima County Health District as well as adhering to guidance provided by the Yakima County Health District and Washington State Department of Health guidelines to ensure safe care for patients and our communities. Decision making surrounding the testing of patients with suspected cases of COVID-19 is influenced through the incorporation of guidance provided by our local health district and Washington State Department of Health, to ensure appropriate precautions are taken.

How do I get my COVID-19 Vaccine or Booster?

We are scheduling COVID-19 Vaccinations through three locations. 

Sunnyside Pediatrics is now offering COVI-19 vaccinations for children 5-11 years old every Friday.

Masks in the Healthcare Setting

Universal masking is no longer required in the healthcare setting as of April 3, 2023 per the end of the Washington State Secretary of Health Mask Order put in place during the COVID-19 Pandemic. Washington State Department of Health continues to encourage masking for everyone in a healthcare facility even if they do not have symptoms of COVID-19 because of the potential for asymptomatic and pre-symptomatic transmission. There remain situations where masking is indicated and expected for healthcare workers, patients, visitors, or anyone entering the healthcare facility. Masking requirements continue during operative/invasive and sterile procedures. Healthcare providers will continue to follow isolation precautions and utilize the appropriate respiratory protection/source control when indicated. All staff, patients, and visitors will have access to masks.
 
Anyone who presents to an Astria Health facility with respiratory illness, symptoms of COVID-19, a positive COVID-19 viral test, or close contact with someone with a positive COVID-19 infection will be asked to wear a well-fitting facemask. Anyone who wishes to wear a mask in our healthcare facilities when transmission levels are low, is free to do so.
 

We appreciate your cooperation to keep our staff, patients, and yourself safe.
