Due to an increased prevalence of influenza across the region, all Guthrie hospitals have initiated visitor restrictions effective February 14, 2017, to help minimize flu exposure to our patients.
Visitor restrictions include:
The phone system at Guthrie Corning Hospital has been restored, as of 2 p.m. today. Thank you for your patience during this outage.

Guthrie received bronze level recognition in the American Heart Association’s Workplace Health Achievement Index for 2017.
The American Heart Association has defined best practices for employers to use to build a culture of health for their employees in the workplace. The Association’s Workplace Health Achievement Index measures the extent to which the company has implemented those workplace health best practices.
On Sept. 15, Guthrie will host an Opioid Medication Take Back Day at the Clinic Pharmacy in Sayre, Pa. from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Community members and employees are encouraged to clean out their medicine cabinets and bring in any unused or expired medications so that they can be safely disposed. All medication types will be accepted, but the day is primarily focused on getting unused opioids, such as pain medication, out of medicine cabinets. Opioid medications are highly addictive and are sought after by those struggling with a heroin or prescription drug addiction.
