From North Shore Health - August 1, 2024

Due to recent positive COVID-19 resident cases and staff members, in addition to increasing COVID-19 positive levels in the community (Grand Marais, Grand Portage, Lutsen, Hovland, etc.), we are mandating mask use by all Staff, Patients, and Visitors to North Shore Health. 

Those entering North Shore Health will be required to wear a mask. This is being done to protect all those at North Shore Health including North Shore Living and the Hospital.

NSH staff will be required to wear a mask in all public-facing or meeting areas of the facility. 

Thank you for your patience, and understanding, as we work through this respiratory illness outbreak.

Please stay tuned for further updates.
