What we’re doing to keep you safe

We’re going beyond industry cleanliness and safety standards to implement the most rigorous COVID-SAFE Care protocols currently available. To protect the health of all our patients, we’ve applied a variety of appropriate measures, tailored to each setting.

Rigorous Cleaning Measures

We’ve implemented rigorous COVID-SAFE cleaning measures, including frequent deep cleaning, disinfecting high-touch areas and sterilization of all exam rooms and equipment following each patient visit. 

masks with hands and sanitizer

Masks and Sanitization Stations

All patients are required to wear a mask. Patients who don’t have their own will be provided one. Sanitization stations are available to ensure good hand hygiene.

safe patient appointment areas

Designated Patient Treatment Areas

For everyone’s safety, non-COVID-19 patients and COVID-19 patients will each have their own designated treatment areas. 

two people six feet apart

Social Distancing

Patients and staff are asked to maintain a distance of at least six feet from one another, unless giving or receiving direct patient care. This includes adjusted seating layouts, spacing signs and elevator use capacity limits. 

safe health screening

Universal Screenings

As patients enter the building, they will be required to undergo a no-contact temperature check and screening for other symptoms and possible COVID-19 exposure.
