Metro Physical Therapy is committed to their patient’s health and well being. They realize that these are unprecedented times and for that reason they have put in place rigorous safety measures at their offices and for their staff to abide by. Here’s what they are doing to keep their patients safe:
• Private treatment rooms are available and are sterilized after each use. Patients are not asked to sit in a waiting room, instead they can come in and go directly to their own private treatment room.
• Each therapist is working in separate areas of the clinic. No patients will be treated within 6 ft of each other. Patients are only seen one at a time.
• Their staff and every patient that comes through the door are screened for symptoms, including taking temperatures. Any patient or staff that have a fever or any symptoms will not be permitted in the facility.
• All equipment, treatment tables and rooms are cleaned regularly with broad spectrum disinfectant. They use Zogics, which effectively kills all SARS-associated Coronavirus.
• Home Care therapists are following all CDC and WHO guidelines for PPE. Each therapist is screened for symptoms and fever before being permitted to go to a patients home.
• Aquatic Therapy is still available. Their pools are maintained to a strict standard with salt water and chlorine. The CDC states “There is no evidence that COVID-19 can be spread to humans through the use of pools and hot tubs. Proper operation, maintenance, and disinfection (e.g., with chlorine and bromine) of pools and hot tubs should remove or inactivate the virus that causes COVID-19.”
Metro remains here for all of their patients! They are offering as many options as possible to make sure everyone gets the care they need. See how you can get help from Metro below.
