Due to this increase, all hospitals are looking at additional ways to prevent the spread. Fulton County Hospital is adding another level of security for our patients, visitors, staff and community. We have implemented a check in station at the entrance to our facility where you will be greeted by a Fulton County Hospital Team Member. This Team Member will take your temperature and ask a series of questions. Once this short process is completed, you will be allowed to continue into the facility. We appreciate your continued support and teamwork to protect the people of our County. March 11, 2020 Governor Asa Hutchinson, through Proclamation, declared an emergency, and ordered the Arkansas Department of Health to take action to prevent the spread of Covid-19. In conjunction with the Department of Health, Fulton County Hospital is dedicated to doing our part to prevent the spread of Covid-19.
