As inpatient volumes continue to climb, MMH encourages you to help slow the spread of COVID-19 over the holidays. Interim CEO, Liz Leising and ER Doctor, Frank Fiorito share insights on what MMH is currently experiencing and how to manage COVID-19 symptoms and limit your risk of exposure. |

MMH Community Update:
This past week our number of hospitalized COVID-19 patients remained consistent with the patient volumes we experienced the week prior. Unless there is a significant change in volume trends, our next update will be Monday, February 28.
Inpatient Care
We currently have 23 patients on our Med/Surg floor, with three of those patients in our Special Care Unit and one on a ventilator. Eight of our patients are Covid+. Our overall percentage of hospitalized COVID patients who are unvaccinated continues to trend around 85%. All our current hospitalized COVID patients are unvaccinated.
Testing
The percent of patients testing positive for COVID-19 declined significantly, with 26.1% of patients (51 in total) testing positive, the lowest rate we’ve seen so far in 2022. Those who need to be tested should contact their primary care provider for an outpatient test to be completed through our lab or schedule an appointment at a local testing site through coronavirus.in.gov. If you have mild symptoms or had a known exposure to someone with COVID-19, self-testing at home with an over-the-counter test is also a good option for fast results.
Vaccination
Vaccine appointments for everyone ages 5 and older can be scheduled Monday - Friday at the MMH Occupational Health and Wellness Center in Batesville by calling 812.932.5105. Vaccine appointments can also be made Monday – Friday at the Margaret Mary Health Center in Brookville by calling 765.647.5126. Walk-ins are also welcome in Brookville.

COVID-19 Vaccine Availability
Your family of pharmacies has received a limited supply of the COVID-19 vaccine in select areas and our licensed health care professionals are partnering with federal and state agencies to administer the doses in accordance with each jurisdiction’s rollout plans.
This page will be regularly updated with information on vaccine availability and eligibility by state. Please check back often for new locations and updated eligibility criteria.
