YOUR CHILD, SCHOOL, & COVID
Dear family,
In order to help you get your children back to school after an illness, we have a new process that should help.
Keep in mind that it is impossible for us to tell the difference between a usual cold and COVID-19.
If your child needs to be medically cleared to go back to school after an illness, then we need to test your child. Here’s how you can do it:
Set up a telehealth visit on our anytime pediatrics app.
After the visit, we will schedule a time to have a COVID swab done in the parking lot.
After the test is done (20 minutes) we will send a clearance letter directly to your portal.
What if we need to examine your child after the telehealth visit?
Sometimes we can do a brief exam (like checking the lungs), right in the car at the time of the COVID test.
Sometimes we will need to do a full exam in the office and we will schedule that for you.
We ask you to arrive 20 minutes before your appointment time because our nurse is going to do a COVID swab in the parking lot before bringing you into the office.
