Social Distancing During Appointments
First and foremost, we believe it’s necessary to address the importance of our role in social distancing during doctor’s appointments. We have been closely following the proper guidelines and regulations to ensure that we can provide a clean and safe environment space for our patients to come in and get their treatments. We are taking every precaution to clean, sanitize and disinfect our practice. We have eliminated the option for walk-in appointments during this time and are screening every patient for symptoms before they come in. We are all doing our part here to practice social distancing during doctor’s appointments the best we can.
Why is Social Distancing Important?
At this point during the quarantine, we have all heard of the term “flattening the curve.” It is our job as both healthcare workers and patients to keep each other safe and protected. Social distancing is one of the best ways to help flatten the curve and keep our loved ones safe. It has been studied that germs can spread as far as six feet when someone coughs or sneezes. Social distancing recommends 6 feet of space unless necessary. This includes when you are checking in, waiting in line, sitting in the waiting room and even walking past someone to get to your door. Ultimately social distancing is what helps to keep you safe, our providers safe and hopefully flatten the curve around our community. It is an important aspect of quarantine, and we at St. Paul Chiropractic & Natural Medicine Center are taking every measure to ensure your safety while coming in to get the treatments that you so desperately need.
