COVID-19 Update
FOCUS on SAFETY:
Keeping patients, staff and providers safe is our number one priority. Currently, we are seeing all patients for well child care visits and encouraging families to keep up with their children’s scheduled immunizations. When you come into the clinic to see your provider we want to reassure you that we here at Renton Pediatric Associates have a comprehensive safety plan in place that includes:
*Screening all our patients over the phone and when they first enter the clinic for COVID-19 symptoms
*Requiring masks for all patients over the age of 2 years as well as all of our staff and providers
*Rigorous cleaning protocols and surface disinfecting
*Adaptation of our spaces to allow physical distancing
*The use of personal protective equipment by our staff during your visit
*The maintenance of different times for our well child visits and sick office visit
