CORONAVIRUS DISEASE 2019 (COVID-19)
CORONAVIRUS DISEASE 2019
Important information for our patient families.
Your health is important, and our patients’ safety is our top priority.
As the situation with coronavirus (COVID-19) continues to develop, our entire team is ready and standing by to support you. You rely on us every day for your medical needs, and we’re going to continue to provide, to the best of our abilities, reliable access to our team. As such, we are in the process of launching a new Telemedicine Portal that will provide online access/video conferencing for those patients who would prefer to reach us in this manner.
PROMOTING HEALTH AND SAFETY
Nothing is more important than your health and safety, and the need to protect those most vulnerable to the coronavirus.
We are taking multiple steps to minimize health risks by taking additional measures to provide for the safety of our team, patients, and community:
- Elevated infection control standards include the disinfection of treatment rooms and instruments
- Preemptive patient screening: appointment rescheduling for any patient experiencing symptoms of an illness; in-office patient screening for symptoms before receiving treatment
- Continued adherence to standard sterile healthcare environment protocols, including hand hygiene, use of personal protective equipment, respiratory hygiene/cough etiquette, and clean and disinfected surfaces and common areas
- Hand sanitization stations in various parts of the practice
We have provided links to some helpful sites and resources from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), CT.gov (state government COVID-19 portal), Connecticut Children’s Medical Center, and the Bristol Public Schools website on our homepage at: https://pediatriccarectr.com
Please let us know if you need additional assistance. We understand these times can be challenging, and we are here to help.
Please stay up to date on local news and announcements regarding any new developments regarding the coronavirus.
Thank you for being part of the PCC family.
Take care,
The PCC Team
