In these uncertain times, your safety is our utmost concern. You may be hesitant to seek medical care, but rest assured that we are uniquely positioned to deliver high-quality care while minimizing exposure to infection.

Our surgery center is a controlled space, staffed by providers who understand and have experience in managing infection and disease. Providing exceptional infection control precautions is simply a daily way of life for us.

Please be aware that we are taking further steps to ensure your safety and comfort.

Step 1: Our Patients

 

• We are taking extra precautions to pre-screen patients prior to their arrival at the center. We are rescheduling any patient who does not meet our strict health guidelines.
• Patients will need to wear a mask over the nose and mouth, such as bandana, scarf or homemade mask.
• We will contact you the day before your procedure with specific instructions to follow upon your arrival at the center.
• If a patient escort needs to enter the center, they must undergo the same health screening patients will be subject to and follow all applicable center safety measures.

Step 2: Our Staff

 

• All center staff will undergo daily screenings for symptoms of illness.
• Clinical and business staff will wear surgical masks at all times.
• Social distancing measures have been implemented. This includes:
  • limiting the number of patients in the center at any given time
  • spacing out chairs so they are at least six feet apart in the waiting area
  • minimizing patient touchpoints

Step 3: Our Center

 

• We follow nationally recommended best practices to keep our centers clean and safe.
• Only EPA-registered cleaning products are used, and waiting areas are cleaned at least twice a day. This includes high touch surfaces such as chair arms, doorknobs, tabletops, countertops, handles, sinks and faucets.
• We clean every procedure room both before and after every patient. In addition, we clean all of our public areas throughout the day and are minimizing traffic in those areas.
• Tissues and sanitizer will be available near the front desk.
• Our cleaning procedures adhere to the most stringent Center for Disease Control (CDC) recommendations and are regularly reviewed by both CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) and our accreditation organizations (AAAHC or Joint Commission).
