As my wife heads to the local, privately-operated but publicly-funded clinic for her first in-person medical appointment in a while, I come across this bit of AHS policy -- it highlights that if we actually had entirely publicly-owned&operated healthcare facilities in Alberta, she'd be protected by bidirectional masking

AHS Guidelines for Masking & Use of Eye Protection Masking Refer to Routine Practices as required by the Infection Prevention and Control Risk Assessment (IPC RA) to make PPE decisions, including the use of masks and N95 respirators. Masking is still required for healthcare workers, family/support persons and visitors in the following situations: - When directed by an outbreak protocol - For staff, as identified by the Attending Work with COVID-19 Symptoms or a Positive COVID-19 test - When asked by a patient or resident - When a masking poster is posted on a patient’s doors - Or when in contact with a severely immunocompromised individual
