Welcome to our practice!
HOW IS OUR PRACTICE RESPONDING TO THE PANDEMIC?
We are working diligently in accordance with CDC guidelines and professional recommendations on how to continue operating a medical office during a pandemic. We are also using recommendations from the CDC and the American College of Physicians to guide our office on how to continue keeping our staff, patients, and visitors safe during COVID-19.
IS IT SAFE TO COME TO THE OFFICE DURING COVID-19?
We have implemented and monitored many upgraded infection protocols to stop the spread of COVID-19, some of which include:
MASKS
All staff, patients, visitors, and persons entering the office (above the recommended age of 2) are required to wear a surgical mask or facial covering at all times while present in the office.
TEMPERATURE CHECKS
Along with wearing masks, all persons entering the office will have their temperature checked at the front door. Anyone with a fever will be asked to return to their car and await a phone call from a provider in the office.
WAITING ROOM CHANGES
We have removed several chairs in the waiting room in order to adhere to CDC guidelines on separating at least 6 feet for social distancing. Patients also have the option of waiting in their car until their appointment time. We have also staggered appointments so that the waiting room can remain clear.
EXAM ROOM CLEANING
We are rotating exam rooms and cleaning equipment, beds, and touch-points to allow proper drying times in between patients.
COVID-19 VACCINATIONS
All of our providers are fully vaccinated with the COVID-19 vaccine to better protect and serve our patients.
