San Francisco

As part of our commitment to protect our patients and staff, and to prevent the spread of infectious diseases affecting our communities (including COVID-19 and monkeypox), we have implemented the following in our facilities:

Anyone entering our facilities must continue to wear a well-fitted mask, that covers their nose, mouth and chin, regardless of vaccination status. You may receive a recommendation to wear a KP supplied mask upon entry to facility to improve safety. Please adhere to all self-symptom screening required for entry to our facilities as posted at entry points.

Inpatient Facilities

Our hospital visitor restrictions correspond directly to the CDPH-published COVID-19 transmission rates in the county that our hospitals are located and are based on 4 levels of transmission rates: high, substantial, moderate, or low.

The San Francisco Medical Center is hosting a free, virtual cooking class on Wednesday, October 5 from 6–7:30 p.m., to commemorate Filipino-American Heritage Month. The class is taught by Linda Shiue, MD, KPSF internist and professionally trained chef; Arlene Cosca, MD, Ob-Gyn; and Daniel Santiago, MD, Adult & Family Medicine – and is open to both members and non-members.

Participants will learn how to make healthy versions of three traditional Filipino dishes: kinilaw, plant-based monggo, and fresh lumpias. Pre-registration is required by Wednesday, Sept. 28. To register, please visit here. A link to the class will be shared with registered participants closer to the date of the class.
