Question 1

What safety measures are you taking due to Covid-19?

Accepted Answer

Artus Physical Therapy is an essential medical facility. Despite being designated as such, we decided to temporarily close our office back in March to ensure the safety of our community.  After much consideration, and in accordance with local officials, we will re-open as of July 15th. Please note that our main priority is the health and safety of our patients and staff, so re-opening involves taking all the necessary precautions to keep evreyone safe.   Below is a list of the safety measures we're taking:    -  everyone is required to wear face mask/coverings for the duration of their visit (all patients     are required to wear their own masks in order to enter the facility) -   hand sanitizer will be located at the entrance, exit, and in each treatment room -   all employees will receive and administer temperature and pulse checks to all patients           upon entry into the clinic -   we will have a social-distanced check-in process and will not be using our waiting area -   we have limited the number of PTs and patients at the clinic at one time -   we ask all patients and staff to bring their own water bottles as the water fountain will be        unavailable -   our lockers will be unavalable as well, and showers will be closed    As always, we will continue to:   -  use disinfectant to wipe down all exposed clinic surfaces between appointments -  change pillow cases between each session -  have all staff sanitize their hands between patients

Question 2

How many patients do you treat at one time?

Accepted Answer

All of our therapists treat one person at a time, no exceptions.  We believe it is in the best interest of the patient, as well as the therapist, to fully focus on each individual case with one-on-one treatment for 45 mins, in order to facilitate a comprehensive, personalized approach to patient care.

In the event you are not covered by insurance, or your insurance benefits have been exhausted for the year, we charge a self-pay rate of $150/visit.
