Recommendations for patients for face-to-face consultations

Here you’ll find all the information to keep in mind if the specialist consultation you have scheduled will be done face-to-face.

About using mask

The use of face masks is not mandatory; however, it continues to be recommended in the following situations:

  • People with respiratory symptoms.
  • Patients and accompanying persons who remain in Emergency Department waiting areas, regardless of symptoms.
  • Patients and accompanying persons who remain in shared and common areas of Intensive Care Units and units with vulnerable patients.

In other inpatient units and outpatient clinics, the use of a face mask is recommended for immunocompromised patients or those with conditions that make them susceptible to severe respiratory infections, or where such infections could worsen their underlying condition, as well as for their accompanying persons while they remain in shared and common areas.
