This is a developing situation, and this page will be updated with new information as it is available.
Following the water main break in Forsyth County, several Novant Health clinics are transitioning to virtual appointments for the remainder of the day.
Patients requiring in-person care will be accommodated at nearby Novant Health clinics that remain open. A list of clinics is included below.
Novant Health Medical Park Hospital and Novant Health Hawthorne Outpatient Surgery Center have temporarily paused elective surgical procedures.
All patients will be contacted directly about any changes to their appointment or procedure.
Novant Health Forsyth Medical Center has activated our water disruption preparedness plan, which includes pausing elective surgical procedures and procuring external water resources.
The facility remains safe and open to medical and emergency services but is temporarily implementing visitor restrictions to assist with water conservation efforts.
Novant Health Clemmons Medical Center and Novant Health Kernersville Medical Center continue normal operations.
As always, the safety of our patients and team members remains our top priority. We want our communities to know that we continue to provide care and encourage anyone who needs medical attention to seek it without delay.
Hospital visitor guidance:
Visitation is limited to one essential support person. Exceptions include pediatric patients, labor and delivery, family and neonatal intensive care units, patients requiring assistance because of a disability or cognitive condition, and end-of-life care. Other exceptions may be approved based on individual patient needs.
We appreciate our community's understanding and patience as we work to restore normal operations. We will provide updates as conditions change.
