Hello everyone! Just wanted to give an update to all our patients. On Monday, May 4, we cautiously OPENED FOR ALL CARE and restoring our normal office hours. While many things have changed these past couple of months, one thing has remained the same: our commitment to your safety. Here are a few things we have implemented to keep you and our employees safe while providing your dental care:
- For the first two weeks we are open we will be seeing fewer patients so that we can start slow and controlled.
- We would like to keep the reception area as empty as possible. If it would make you feel more comfortable, please feel free to stay in your vehicle, and call when you arrive.
- Please limit entrance into our office for the patient only. Of course, we understand in the instance of a young child, the elderly, or someone with special circumstances a companion is more than welcome.
- Be aware that our doctors and staff may be wearing more personal protective equipment than you are used to seeing.
- We will be taking our temperature daily and we will be taking yours as well.
- We will by verifying with all our patients whether they have had Covid-19 symptoms or potential exposures and those who may have will be recommended to stay home.
- As always, infection control is a top priority. We adhere to recommendations from the ADA, CDC and OSHA. Every room is completely disinfected after use. All reusable instruments are sterilized and anything disposable is always thrown out.
We are excited to see our patients again, but safety is our top priority. With these changes, we feel that we will be able to provide our excellent dental care in a safe environment. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to call us at (864) 226-4411.
See you soon,
The Austin/Pray team
