YOUR MEDICATION
If you’re wondering about your regular medications in regard to coronavirus, we’re not recommending any changes unless you have a fever or change in breathing, which are among the COVID-19 symptoms.
RESCHEDULING APPOINTMENTS
If you’ve developed a cough, fever, sore throat, or change in breathing within the last week, please call your primary care provider for further screening. You’ll need to reschedule your appointment with Arthritis Center if you have these symptoms.
All family members or visitors should remain in the Bryan building lobby when you come for your appointment.
IN-OFFICE SAFETY MEASURES
For the safety of our patients and staff, we are following CDC protocol to screen patients before they enter the office. Do any of the following apply to you?
- New cough in the last week
- Fever of 100 degrees or higher
- Shortness of breath or change in breathing in the last seven days
- Exposure to any known COVID cases
We are practicing social distancing in our infusion center, waiting area and lab. Healthcare providers are wearing masks and gloves when working with patients and immediately disinfecting exam tables and other surfaces following each visit.
Masks are required during your appointment. If you don’t have one, we will provide fabric that can be worn bandana style.
