BEDFORD, NH – The number one priority of SolutionHealth is the safety of patients, staff, and the community.

– Most people with mild symptoms and those who have been exposed but do not have symptoms will not be tested in accordance with CDC and NH DPHS guidelines.
– If you are not tested, your primary provider can advise on how to best manage your symptoms at home and prevent spreading the virus to others.
– The Emergency Department should only be utilized in case of a life-threatening emergency, such as difficulty breathing. If you or someone you know is experiencing an emergency, dial 911.
