    COVID-19 Update: Changes to COVID-19 Restrictions, By The Numbers

    Changes to COVID-19 Restrictions

    Owensboro Health is starting to roll back some COVID-19 restrictions as cases continue to trend downward:

    • In-person meetings can resume if proper precautions are taken (spacing, masking, etc.).
    • Daily Check-In at the Pleasant Valley Campus has returned to in person. Either a dial-in number or Webex will be provided for those off-site.
    • The Cafe meeting rooms at OHRH will no longer be used for overflow dining. They are available for meetings, as are meeting rooms MOB 1-3. Please complete an internal room request form via Link if you are in need of meeting space.

    More adjustments are planned for March, provided that cases continue to decrease.
