Coronavirus In-office Policies
The safety for our families and staff is our top priority. Based on guidance from the CDC, American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), and the American Physical Therapy Association, our guidelines for infection control include:
Please read our regulations carefully
Telehealth – telehealth appointments are still available for any who wish and are encouraged if you or your child present with any risk factors for adverse effects of COVID-19. Please refer to the CDC website for these risk factors.
Parent attendance – We prefer that only parents/guardians be in attendance during physical therapy sessions. Check with your therapist if other siblings need to be present.
Masks – Masks are available upon request for all staff and patients. If your child has tested positive for COVID-19 we request that they and yourself inform your therapist and wear a mask during your session if you are within 5 days of positive test.
Hand washing/hand sanitizer – Hand sanitizer will be available throughout the clinic and can be used as needed.
- Sterilization of all equipment and toys following manufacturer recommendations for sterilization
- We are thorough with cleaning after each treatment
- If you, your child, or a sibling have tested positive for COVID-19 we ask that you be in contact with your physical therapist to reschedule your appointment. Current guidance from the CDC (effective April 2024) mandates that the individual testing positive should quarantine until symptoms are improving and there has been no fever for 24 hours without the use of fever reducing medications. Masks should be worn in public for an additional 5 days after symptom improvement.
