The CDC is responding to the emerging and rapidly evolving outbreak of COVID-19. This pandemic of respiratory disease can cause mild to severe illness and is spread from person-to-person. The coronavirus pandemic poses a serious public health risk.
Following the most recent governmental recommendation relating to the COVID-19 virus pandemic, Riverfront Dental Care is temporarily closed thru 6/1/20. The following information was released to our patients on May 22, 2020.
Dear Patient of Riverfront Dental Care:
We hope this letter finds you and your family in good health. Our community has been through a lot over the last few months, and all of us are looking forward to resuming our normal habits and routines. While many things have changed, one thing has remained the same: our commitment to your health & safety.
I am happy to report that our office will reopen, with a limited schedule, (excluding dental cleanings) on Monday, June 1, 2020.
You will see some changes when it is time for your next appointment. We made these changes to help protect our patients and staff.
For example:
- Our office will communicate with you beforehand to ask some screening questions. You’ll be asked those same questions again when you are in the office.
- You will see a banner on the front of the office asking that you call (732) 349-1315 upon your arrival to the parking lot, please wait in your car until called back
- We will call you back when it is time to come in for your appointment.
- You are required to wear a mask or face cover when entering the office.
- Your temperature will be taken when you arrive
- You will be asked to use provided hand sanitizer when you enter and leave the office
- Appointments will be managed to allow for physical distancing between patients. That might mean that you’re offered fewer options for scheduling your appointment.
- We will allow greater time between patients to reduce waiting times for you, as well as to reduce the number of patients in the office at any one time.
- We will offer contactless payment options (ApplePay, SamsungPay, Pay thru our website, CC over the phone, etc.)
As always, infection control is a top priority for our practice as you have seen during your visits to our office. Our infection control processes are made so that when you receive care, it’s both safe and comfortable.
Our office follows infection control recommendations made by the American Dental Association (ADA), the New Jersey Dental Association (NJDA), the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). We follow the activities of these agencies so that we are up-to-date on any new rulings or guidance that may be issued.
We look forward to seeing you again and are happy to answer any questions you may have about the steps we take to keep you, our staff and every patient, safe & comfortable in our practice.
To make an appointment, please call our office at (732) 349-1295 or visit our website at Riverfrontdentists.com.
Thank you for being our patient. We value your trust and loyalty and look forward to welcoming you back.
Sincerely,
Jan Rella, DMD
