TO OUR COMMUNITY
Caring for our Community-Health and Safety
We value the health and wellness of our community. With the recent emergence of the Coronavirus (COVID-19), we want to take a moment to share with you what we are doing to keep our team and patients healthy.
Whitefish Acupuncture & Integrative Medicine is following all recommendations made by the Center for Disease Control (CDC) regarding the Coronavirus and is monitoring closely for any updates.
Clinic Standards and Safety
Keeping our clinics clean and sanitized is very important to us. We have a strict set of guidelines our Acupuncturist and Clinic Manager follows every day to ensure that our patients health is never put at risk.
Our acupuncturist always sanitize their hands between every patient. Our Clinic Manager disinfects every surface regularly and in the response to the Coronavirus, we have increased cleaning protocols related to high-touch surfaces like door handles, keyboards, counters, chairs, etc. Hand sanitizer is always available for patients to use as well.
Doing Our Part to Stay Healthy
Health and wellness are the foundation of our approach. We’re are encouraging our team to stay home and see a doctor when they are not feeling well. We want to make absolutely sure we are taking the best care possible of our team. We ask that you give a call to reschedule your treatment when you are feeling sick. Be aware that if you are exhibiting symptoms, we may kindly ask to reschedule your treatment in person. Keeping the community healthy and safe is our #1 priority. We appreciate your support.
The recommendations and protocols established by the World Health Organization, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, as well as State Health Departments can assist you to make decisions in the best interest of your community. Thank you to everyone for your support in these tough times! Stay safe and be well.
