CORONAVIRUS UPDATE March 15, 2020:
We have received many calls and questions regarding the Coronavirus and how it affects our office and your dental treatment. Rest assured that we are frequently checking guidelines and recommendations by the Ohio Department of Health, the Ohio Dental Association, and the Center for Disease Control.
We WILL be open this week and plan to stay open unless otherwise advised.
We take our patients health very seriously as well as that of our staff. We will continue to provide a clean and safe environment for healthcare and will be making the recommended changes / updates in response to the Coronavirus. We strictly adhere to CDC guidelines in disinfection protocol and plan to continue to do so.
If you have a scheduled appointment, we will call the day before your appointment to remind you as well as to answer any questions.
We ask that patients plan to arrive at their appointment time to minimize the amount of time spent in the waiting area. We are adjusting our schedule to try to operate more efficiently and decrease wait times.
We ask that if you have traveled via plane domestically or have been outside of the United States, to delay treatment for 14 days.
If you have a fever, shortness of breath, or have been coughing, please reschedule.
Please try to minimize physical contact with surfaces at our reception desk and in the waiting area. These surfaces will be cleaned with hospital-grade disinfectants multiple times per day.
Please use smart hygiene habits whenever possible:
Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 30 seconds
Avoid touching your face, eyes, nose, and mouth.
Avoid close contact with those who are sick
Stay home when you are sick
Cover your mouth when you sneeze
If you do not feel comfortable receiving treatment, then you should delay your appointment.
It is truly a pleasure to serve our friends, family, and community. We strive to provide the best care possible and plan to do our part to keep everyone healthy.
Please stay tuned for further updates.
Thank you,
Dr. Baudendistel & Dr. Jacob
