By Highpoint Health, Michael Schwebler, news release

A message from Michael Schwebler, President & CEO of Highpoint Health.

I want to assure the community that the entire staff at Highpoint Health is doing everything it can to mitigate, prepare, and respond to the COVID-19 pandemic.

To date, we’ve:

created a COVID-19 task force that is actively monitoring and working closely with the Dearborn County Health Department, the State of Indiana Department of Health and the Centers for Disease Control
implemented our hospital-wide preparedness plan and processes so we can effectively respond to the COVID-19 pandemic
placed visitor restrictions and centralized hospital entry/exit points to protect our most vulnerable patients as well as prevent the spread of COVID-19
started screening all patients and visitors before entering the hospital
postponed/canceled all elective testing and elective surgical procedures (contact your provider for specific information) to help prevent the spread of COVID-19

As your community’s healthcare leader, we also have a dedicated line, 812-537-8210, staffed by our highly-trained medical professionals, to answer any questions you may have about
COVID-19.

Our comprehensive planning and preparation assures we’re prepared to care for all of our patients and their families, not just those suffering from COVID-19.

Thank you for your patience and understanding during this rapidly evolving situation.

Stay Strong,

Michael Schwebler
