COVID-19 Safety Information for Our Patients
Our team is working hard to maintain a safe infusion environment. We remain open so you can receive your necessary infusions. We recommend that you continue receiving your infusions to avoid flare-ups and to prevent hospitalizations.
If you have a fever, respiratory symptoms (cough, sore throat or shortness of breath), nausea, vomiting or diarrhea, or a recent exposure to someone who tested positive for COVID-19, please call the infusion center to report these symptoms before coming in.
We are taking extra measures to decrease coronavirus exposure and reduce risk for our patients and staff:
- We screen and triage all patients in a separate room upon arrival.
- We screen all staff members for symptoms of COVID-19. Those with symptoms are not allowed into the infusion center.
If you have questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us.
