It's said to help stop the spread of 'severe' respiratory viruses
Manx Care says those visiting its clinical settings may be asked to wear face masks to protect staff and patients from respiratory illnesses.
The healthcare provider's clinicians may also be wearing masks, and it states this is nothing to worry about.
Manx Care says these measures help protect staff and patients during winter months when such viruses can be particularly severe.
The organisation is asking those attending Noble's Hospital, especially when entering hospital wards, to follow staff guidance to help keep everyone safe.
