COVID-19 UPDATES

Update 6/10/2022:

In accordance with Washington State, King County, and CDC guidelines, masks are still required in healthcare settings. We will update our policy as soon as guidance changes. Thank you for your patience.

 

Check-in policy / What to Expect: 

  1.  Please ask for a disposable mask if you forgot to bring yours.
  2. You are now welcome to bring a guest or child if need be, but they must also wear a mask if they are 2+ yo.

What precautions are we taking: 

  1. PT’s and patients are required to wash hands for 20 seconds between patients and before service
  2. All equipment, treatment tables, countertops, chair rails, and door knobs are disinfected with hospital-grade disinfectant twice per day.
  3. Per state mandate everyone in the office must wear a face covering.  We are providing free face coverings for patients who forget to bring one.
  4. Up-to-date H-VAC systems in all clinics.
  5. Step and Pull openers are installed on all doors to our offices to allow for contactless entry into our facility.
  6. Credit card machines and systems / procedures have been updated to allow for contactless payment.
  7. You may convert an in-clinic appointment to a telehealth appointment at any time.
  8. All patient paperwork has been converted to paperless and is done online to reduce contact with surfaces and reduce time spent in the office.
