New rules governing events and gatherings at The Neuro
In order to limit potential exposure to COVID-19, The Neuro has adopted additional special measures for gatherings and events within The Neuro complex, including Neuro activities in other buildings such as the Lyman Duff and Ludmer buildings.
Restricted entrance to The Neuro
As the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) situation continues to evolve, we are taking additional precautions to prevent transmission of the virus in our facility. For that reason, we must restrict access to The Neuro and screen staff and patients.
