Putnam County Hospital would like the community to know that the hospital and clinics are open, and
they are continuing to provide exceptional healthcare close to home. The providers of Putnam County
Hospital would like to urge our community to not delay needed care. PCH is offering both in-person and
virtual visits.

Dr. Lisa Martin, Putnam Pediatrics and Internal Medicine said, “As we move cautiously forward in this
new health care environment, it is important for us to take the next steps for our children’s wellness and
to get them caught up on their immunizations. Childhood vaccines protect our children from a variety
of serious and potentially fatal illnesses including measles, mumps, rubella, whooping cough and polio
(among many others). These vaccines are a vital step in protecting our youngest family members as
they grow. At the practices of Putnam County Hospital, we are committed to work hand in hand with
our community to provide the best of care each and every day, it is our mission and our privilege.”

Putnam County Hospital Physician practices have served patients throughout the pandemic.
Each practice continues to operate normal business hours by seeing patients in person and through
telehealth visits.

Whether located inside our hospital facility or at our North Putnam or Cloverdale locations, each
practice will continue to screen patients at the entrance of their facility. All patients will be asked to
bring a mask or one will be provided to wear at all times inside the facility. We ask that patients come
to their visit alone unless they are a child under the age of 18 or the patient needs the assistance of a
caregiver or guardian.

Our offices are contacting patients to schedule appointments that may have been rescheduled after
May 18th, 2020 to accommodate the stay at home order. We welcome you to contact your provider
office to schedule your next visit. We are ready to serve you and look forward to taking care of you
