COVID -19 SAFETY MEASURES

Our understanding of COVID-19 continues to evolve. Nationally, COVID-19 activity is still increasing.

SARS-CoV-2 is the name of the virus that causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The disease is believed to have originally occurred from animal-to-person contact, and it spreads person-to-person.

​

COVID-19 can be mild or severe, and it can affect anyone. However, older people with other health conditions seem to be at higher risk for severe illness and death.​

​

As COVID-19 continues to be active across the country, Sandos Medical Services remains committed to delivering safe and effective care for patients who have been exposed to the virus as well as all other patients.

• Wear a face mask when you are not able to practice physical distancing.

• Wash your hands frequently with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.

• Avoid close contact with people who are sick or who have been exposed to COVID-19.

• Avoid touching your face, mouth or eyes with unwashed hands.

Additional Measure In Place to Protect Our Patients

​

Online Scheduling

Patients can remotely check-in for all scheduled appointments beyond the walls of our offices for their convenience. 2-way messaging allows for the completion of paperwork prior to arrival, expedited service, and minimized wait time in our lobby.

Facility Cleaning
Our office location  is consistently kept clean. Our office space  routinely  disinfected in every examination room, and highly-touched surfaces, before and after every use. Throughout the day, we utilize approved disinfectants that are considered effective against coronavirus . Additionally, we have allocated additional time in between each exam to maximize social distancing and cleansing precautionary efforts.

Knowledgeable Staff

Our medical staff has been properly trained on infection prevention protocols which include comprehensive patient screening and the utilization of personal protective equipment (PPE) upon providing patient care. We are following government guidelines and precautions daily and virtual visits will always be an option for our patients. We are still offering the COVID19 antigen test and continue to recommend that anyone who believes they were exposed to the virus or may have had it should get the test.

Continuous Monitoring.

Our healthcare team meets multiple times per week to ensure safety protocols and satisfy all current local and national guidelines. We understand that guidelines are always changing, therefore we pride ourselves on keeping up to date with current changes issued by health and government officials.

Virtual Visits

Online option is available to all patients who feel compelled to remain at home to minimize the risk of viral transmission exposure. We strongly encourage patients to use this tool for both COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 cases for their convenience.
