Safety Practices in Response to COVID-19
-
Parent appointments (e.g., initial visit, feedback session) will be conducted via a remote distance teleneuropsychology model. Parents will be asked to provide an email or phone number where they can be reached for their remote teleneuropsychology appointment.
-
For testing appointments, only one parent should accompany the child to the appointment. Please do not bring other children to the testing appointment.
-
The parent and child must wash their hands prior to entering the office.
-
While in the waiting area, please adhere to social distancing guidelines for your safety and for the safety of others.
-
Parents will be asked to complete a Covid-19 exposure questionnaire upon arrival to the office.
-
Parent, child, and examiner’s temperature will be taken the morning of the testing appointment.
-
The testing room surfaces, door handles, and testing materials will be disinfected at the beginning and ending of your child’s testing session.
-
When interacting with the examiner, a facemask is requested of parents and children. You may bring your own if you prefer; however, I will also have them available for you.
-
The examiner will wear a facemask, face shield, and gloves in the presence of you and your child and during testing.
-
Your child will be tested, to the extent to which it is feasible, behind a plexiglass wall that is placed between the child and examiner on the desk.
-
Your child will be given a personal pencil that will be his/hers to use throughout the testing day.
-
If you have been exposed to someone with Covid-19, your appointment can be rescheduled after a 14-day time period if you remain symptom-free or have tested negative for Covid-19.
-
If there has been recent travel outside of the state or country, your testing appointment will be scheduled for a period of 14 days after your return. Alternatively, you can provide a negative Covid-19 test result for you and your child 5 days after your return.
