| Mid Coast Hospital continues to provide many resources in support of our region’s pandemic response including the COVID-19 Information Line, drive-thru Testing Site, and the large-scale regional Vaccination Clinic, which we opened in January at Brunswick Parks & Recreation. The Mid Coast Hospital Vaccination Clinic is performing exceptionally well, having administered more than 35,000 COVID-19 vaccinations to date. | | | |
| The State of Maine has announced a change in COVID-19 vaccine eligibility. Beginning April 7, 2021, any Maine resident aged 16 and above will be eligible for vaccination. To ensure patient and staff safety, vaccination at the Mid Coast Hospital Vaccination Clinic continues to be by appointment only. | | | |
| The Mid Coast Medical Group–Topsham Lab Service Center is temporarily closed and will re-open on April 12, 2021. Please visit www.midcoasthealth.com/lab to check wait times or schedule an appointment at one of our other convenient lab service centers in Brunswick or Bath. | | | |
| Recognizing the importance of visitors to the wellbeing of patients, Mid Coast Hospital is relaxing visitor restrictions on visitors, but many restrictions are still in place. The new visitor policy took effect on March 11, 2021, and applies to all Mid Coast Hospital facilities until further notice. | | | |
| Maine continues to move in a positive trend with decreased COVID-19 hospitalizations and incidence in our communities. The number of inpatients at Mid Coast Hospital is dramatically lower when compared with recent months, and hospitalizations throughout the state are down significantly since the late fall surge. We are grateful for our ongoing partnership with the Town of Brunswick to use the Brunswick Parks & Recreation facility for a large-scale regional vaccination clinic, as well as the many staff and volunteers who have worked tirelessly toward this cause. | | | |
| Mid Coast Hospital is warning the community about a phone scam targeting community members. Scammers are calling patients and disguising themselves as Mid Coast Hospital. Please also be aware that scammers might take ongoing COVID-19 vaccination efforts as an opportunity to approach community members. | | | |
| Mid Coast Hospital is excited that we are now able to offer COVID-19 vaccination to eligible people in our community! With the Maine CDC’s recent guidance to expand COVID-19 vaccination eligibility to people over 70 years of age, we have opened a large-scale regional vaccination clinic at Brunswick Parks & Recreation. Vaccination will be accessible to all community members who meet the Maine CDC’s current criteria. | | | |

Recently, my husband and my sister have been under the care of the nurses, doctors, and other ancillary providers at Mid Coast Hospital. As a retired medical professional, I want to share how impressed I am, as they, with the loving kindness we have been surrounded by during the past few months. |

We received incredible care from the time we walked into the Emergency Department until she was delivered to the curb to go home. |

I'm ecstatic that I'll be 78 and I'm still doing what I like. |

Knee replacement brought my life back. I have no idea where I'd be today if I hadn't done it. |
