Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, Dr. Dreyer will be instituting the following measures to help decrease the transmission rate of the disease:
Patient Flow:
Decreasing the number of scheduled patients per day and at any given time in order to maintain social distancing guidelines and minimize potential exposure with other patients
Aside from direct treatment, all patients must wear a mask or face covering when in the building
No persons shall accompany patients, unless the patient is a minor, sedated, or has other medical needs that require a caregiver
Preference will be given to high risk patients (age >60 and/or other medical conditions) for the first appointment of the day
All patients will be prescreened for COVID 19 when confirming their appointment and then when they arrive at their appointment. They will need to complete a COVID 19 consent form and have their BP, O2 sat, and temperature checked. If they have a known exposure, symptoms, or a fever (>100.4 F)- treatment will be delayed no less than 14 days from the current appointment
Sanitizing and Disinfecting Procedures:
Regular sanitizing of frequently touched surfaces will occur (i.e. door handles, pens, credit card machines, etc.)
Continue sanitizing all treatment rooms after each patient
Use of a medical grade HEPA filter in each treatment and high use room
Treatment room doors will be closed during patient treatment and during disinfection process
Fogging of rooms will occur at least once per day after patient care
Use of an intraoral and/or extraoral high volume evacuation (HVE), when appropriate
