Welcome to

WOMEN'S HEALTH CARE ASSOCIATES

***COVID-19 UPDATE***

In light of the outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19), we are taking extra precautions to
ensure that our patients remain safe and healthy during visits to our office. We also want to
keep our staff and providers healthy, so that we can continue to care for our patients. Know that
our office is still open to see all patients.

If you or a household member (spouse, child, live-in relative, etc) is experiencing fever, or other
cold/flu-like symptoms, if you have been exposed to someone with these symptoms OR if you
have traveled out of the country in the past 2 weeks, please do NOT come to the office. Instead
please call us and we can guide you through recommendations and rescheduling. We are also
asking that you refrain from bringing non-essential visitors to your appointment, this includes
young children under the age of 16. If a visitor is necessary, please bring no more than ONE
healthy visitor with you. This visitor must not have any of the above mentioned symptoms or
previously mentioned restrictions.

For those patients that will be going to the hospitals for surgery, labor and delivery, or
postpartum care, know that ALL the hospitals are enacting mitigation techniques to reduce the
spread of this virus.
1. There will be only 1-2 entry sites at all hospitals, usually the main entrance and the
Emergency Room.
2. Everyone will be screened upon entering the hospital for symptoms of the virus
3. Patients are only allowed to have 1 visitor, they will be screened upon entry into the
hospital as well.
4. No children under the age of 16 (and some hospitals have restricted this to age 18) are
allowed

These restrictions are constantly changing, so please look on the websites of your hospital for
up to date information.

We are sanitizing our rooms after each patient and ask you to use hand sanitizer as you enter
into the office as well. We know this is a trying time for everyone and we appreciate your help in
keeping our offices, staff and other patients healthy.

Please reference the following websites for the most up to date information:

Please don’t hesitate to call with any questions or concerns, we are here for you. Thank you for
your help during this unprecedented time.
