  • No Guests – you will be asked to attend your appointment alone, unless the patient is a minor or you require additional medical assistance

 

    #4. What steps has LifeSmart Medical taken to protect me while I attend an in-person appointment?

    Your safety, along with our staff and physicians, is our top priority. Our staff wear personal protective equipment (PPE) in accordance with current Public Health recommendations and follow strict sanitizing guidelines. This includes frequent cleaning and disinfecting throughout the facility. Patient examination rooms and waiting room seats are sanitized between patients, greatly reducing the risk of COVID-19 spreading in our clinic.

    Additionally, we exchange the indoor air within our clinics every 6 to 10 minutes, which reduces the risk of any airborne transmission.

    Since the pandemic began, we have not had a single COVID-19 outbreak in any of our facilities. With your help and our updated policies, we can keep everyone safe while they attend any of our clinics.
