YOUR FAMILY'S HEALTH IS IMPORTANT TO ME. THAT IS WHY I AM TAKING THE FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS TO KEEP YOU SAFE DURING YOUR VISIT:

FOR HOME VISITS:

• I change my clothes just prior to the appointment

• I wear personal protective equipment, including but not limited to: an N95 mask, gloves, a face shield, and a gown

• I ask that any adult present for the appointment also wear a mask

• Only necessary items are brought into the home

• All items are wiped down immediately upon entering the home

• I then wash my hands with soap and water

• I use disposable gloves for hands on assessments

• I carry hand sanitizer to use during the appointment 

• All items are wiped down at the end of the visit

• I wash my hands again prior to leaving 

FOR OFFICE VISITS:

• I change my clothes just prior to the start of the day

• I wear personal protective equipment, including but not limited to: an N95 mask, a KN95 mask, gloves, a face shield, and a gown

• I wipe down high contact common areas upon arrival to my office building

• I wash my hands with soap and water 

• I wipe down my office space with medical grade, fragrance free sanitizing wipes at the start of the day, between appointments, and at the end of the day

• I run a HEPA air filter at all times in my office. HEPA air filters effectively remove virus molecules, including Covid 19, from the air

• I run a non ozone producing UV sterilizer in between appointments. UV sterilization effectively kills virus molecules, including Covid 19, on both hard and soft surfaces

• Appointments are spaced one hour apart to allow for adequate cleaning and in order to refresh the air in between cases

• My office building requires any adult present in the building to wear a mask

• The waiting area is closed, so I ask that you please call when you arrive so that I can come out to get you

PERSONAL LIFE:

• I have a pre-exisiting medical condition that makes me particularly high risk

• I always wear a mask in public

• I practice social distancing

• I do not regularly attend any kind of social gatherings

• I have four children in the public school systems hybrid model

• Childcare during my working hours is provided by a nanny in my home

• If I have an exposure I will self quarantine for 14 days

• If I develop symptoms, I will seek testing and quarantine until symptoms resolve and/or I have a negative test result

• If myself or a close family member is diagnosed with Covid 19, all clients whom I have had contact with in the 7-14 days prior will be notified

WHAT I AM ASKING OF YOU:

Please be honest with me. I am not going to refuse care if you have had a recent exposure, or even if you are Covid positive. I will, however, institute the safety measures that best suit the situation. If you or a family member have Covid 19 symptoms, please allow me to set up a virtual meeting rather than an in-person one. If you have had a recent exposure, you have traveled, you have attended a gathering of any kind, or if you or a family member work in a high risk field, please tell me so that I can determine the safest type of appointment to schedule, and the right PPE for that appointment.

In a time where proper medical care can be so hard to obtain, know that I am not going to deny you care. But please be considerate of my health, of my family members health, and of the health of all of the families that I will see after you, as we work together to ensure the safest care possible. Thank you!
