I’m not worried about the office, but what about the common areas?
The maintenance crew at the Forum has really stepped up their cleaning habits. Every time I cross through the lobby or elevator, I see a custodian scrupulously cleaning. I encourage you to wear face masks in all common areas if you feel this will limit your exposure.
How can I ensure Heather Lane PT will be a safe environment for me as a patient?
Ensuring the health and safety of our communities is our highest priority. As a reminder the most effective way to stay healthy is through best practices to minimize the spread of infectious disease.
The CDC recommends the following to prevent illness:

• Avoid close contact with people who are sick
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth
• Stay home when you are sick (cancellation fees are waived until further notice)
• Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash
• Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe
• Follow CDC’s recommendations for using a facemask
• CDC does not recommend that people who are well wear a facemask to protect themselves from respiratory diseases, including COVID-19
• Facemasks should be used by people who show symptoms of COVID-19 to help prevent the spread of the disease to others.
• The use of facemasks is also crucial for health workers and people who are taking care of someone in close settings (at home or in a health care facility)
• Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after going to the bathroom; before eating; and after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing
• If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol
• Always wash hands with soap and water if hands are visibly dirty
