Continue to Seek the Care You Need! - Dr. Nicholas Edwards

A lot in health care has changed in recent months and if you have had to postpone important visits, surgeries, screenings, or exams, now’s the time for you to get your health back on track! Be assured we’re taking extra safety precautions to provide the critical care you need. This week, Dr. Nicholas Edwards joins us to give us an example of the initiatives they are taking at his hospital in Dubuque.

Here are just a few of the ways we’re protecting your family’s health and safety:

• We’ve designated COVID-19 free zones to minimize risk of infection.
• We’re requiring temperature screenings of all patients, personnel and visitors.
• We provide and require masks to be worn throughout our facilities.
• We are also following the CDC’s standards for cleaning with extra sanitation measures including increased cleaning of frequently touched surfaces like doorknobs and flat surfaces.
• We are continuing our visitor restrictions to keep everyone safe.
• And, of course, we’re continuing safe social distancing measures wherever possible.
