Patients will be asked to stay in their vehicles after check-in as a virtual waiting room to maintain social distancing.
Upon arrival, every patient’s temperature will be taken and hand sanitizer and gloves will be provided.

Once the patient exits the room, full surface disinfection will be conducted while the staff continues to wear personal protective equipment (PPE).
