Capital City Surgery Center COVID-19 Update
Capital City Surgery Center remains committed to your safety and your care!
We understand the continued concern and uncertainty you may be experiencing surrounding the coronavirus (COVID-19). We are doing everything we can to be consistent with the CDC and public health recommendations and continue to provide you with the highest quality service you have come to expect from us.
We will continue with our efforts to limit exposure to our patients, visitors, and staff. All patients and visitors, older than two years old, must wear a medical-grade mask over their nose and mouth while in our facility. Masks will be available at the reception desk.
What if I have recently had COVID?
We follow a 2-4-6 rule. If you had mild symptoms, you may not have elective surgery for 2 weeks following your illness. If you received care from a physician for your infection, you may not have elective surgery for 4 weeks following your illness. If you have been hospitalized, you may not have elective surgery for 6 weeks following your illness.
Do I have to wear a mask?
At this time, Capital City Surgery Center still requires that all visitors, patients, and personnel entering the Center wear a surgical-grade face mask and continue to wear the mask, at all times, while inside the Surgery Center. If you do not have a mask, it will be our pleasure to provide you with one.
We continue to monitor and evaluate the CDC recommendations and will keep you updated on any changes in our practices. We appreciate your understanding and patience.
What if I do not feel well?
We are asking patients and visitors who are sick to not enter the facility. This includes visitors with:
- Cough, runny nose, or other symptoms due to allergies
- Cold or flu-like symptoms
- Fever
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Any other “cold” symptom
In order to ensure our patients and our team are safe, if you feel a visitor appears sick, please ask one of our staff members to address your concern. Any family/visitor who appears sick, but must be on-site for patient needs (i.e., a driver for a patient), must wait outside the Center to limit exposure to others.
