These are the additional precautions we are taking to keep you, our staff and providers safe during this unprecedented time:
*We are asking that everyone wear a mask to their appointment (may be removed as needed during the appointment time). The staff and providers will also be wearing masks.
*Please wait to enter our office no earlier than 5 minutes to your appointment start time. This will allow proper physical distancing as much as possible.
*Please avoid congregating in our front desk/lobby waiting area, and keep a 6 foot distance from our staff once you have paid, to make future appointments.
*We are keeping the office clean and sanitized: We have instituted extra precautionary measures to ensure that viruses and other pathogens are not spread by contact with surfaces. (Continuing to practice universal precautions such as diligent hand washing, regular cleaning and disinfecting, limiting appointments, changing every linen in between patients, disinfecting surfaces, door knobs, entrance handles, etc.)
*If you feel you would need to cancel your appointment because of any symptoms from the above list, our 24 hour cancellation fee is waived during this time.
We know that acupuncture and massage are an important part of your healthcare! We look forward to supporting you during this time of uncertainty.
Wishing you Health & Happiness,
Dawn, Jason and our whole River Family Wellness Staff
