COVID-19 Message March 14 2020
Dear Patients,
The health and well-being of our patients, staff and community is of the highest importance to us.
We are proud to always maintain the highest levels of cleanliness and hygienic practices. We will continue to rigorously follow our exceedingly high standards of infection control and surpass the CDC and OSHA guidelines. We regularly review and audit our procedures and staff training as part of our licensure as a dental practice. As more information comes to light regarding the spread of COVID-19, we have increased the frequency of our disinfection and sanitation of all touch-points and objects including door handles, hand rails and faucets.
We ask if any patients are showing signs of illness, such as a fever, cough, or other flu-like symptoms, to please contact us to reschedule your appointment and take care of yourself.
We encourage everyone to follow best hygiene practices to prevent the spread of respiratory diseases like COVID-19.
- Stay home when you are sick and encourage others to do the same
- Wash your hands often and avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth
- Avoid close contact with people who are sick
- Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze or use the inside of your elbow
- Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces daily
At this time, Smile Sarasota will remain seeing patients who are both scheduled and in an emergency. As always, we continue to value your time and don’t double book so you are seen on time and not left waiting. We will continue to keep our patients updated and monitor this situation daily. Please contact us if you have any questions or concerns with visiting our practice.
Stay safe and healthy!
The friendly and helpful team at Smile Sarasota
