Dear Patients of Charles R. Hamel, M.D.
Arlington Allergy & Wellness Center
As of March 19, 2020
We are closely monitoring developments around the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19).
The safety of our employees and you, our valued patients, is critical, which is why we have taken, among others, the following preventative measures:
· All employees and patients who are ill to remain home and reschedule appointments
· Maintaining a sterile and sanitized work environment
· Sanitizing all office areas constantly with medical-grade germicide
· Requiring very frequent hand washing (20 seconds with soap and hot water) for all staff
· Hand sanitizer is provided at the entrance to our office
· Please try to AVOID bringing guests unless it’s a minor
· Closely monitoring and communicating COVID-19 developments
As an additional proactive measure, we ask that all patients and guests who have a fever, symptoms of a respiratory infection, the flu, have been exposed to a person with COVID-19 (Coronavirus), have recently traveled to high risk areas as noted by the CDC, or any other communicable disease to please RESCHEDULE THEIR APPOINTMENTS
WE URGE YOU TO GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM IF YOU HAVE SHORTNESS OF BREATH!
As always, thank you for your continued support and trust.
STAY SAFE EVERYONE
