Non-essential surgical procedures may soon be in the picture, as Ascension Seton anticipates how to proceed with vital healthcare services, effective April 27.
All changes will be in alignment with Governor Abbott’s Executive Order dated April 17.
Ascension Seton hospitals at most locations will begin scheduled surgeries and procedures, prioritizing those that are more urgent. The hospitals will continue with many safety measures already in place, including visitor restrictions and temperature checks for any individual entering each hospital, and will also require a negative COVID-19 test for any patient scheduled for surgery.
