Covid planning and safe workspace
Unlike many traditional offices in the city, building the clinic during the pandemic has allowed us to plan for infection control. Some unique infection control practices we have built into the clinic space are: HEPA filtration, multiple air exchanges per hour (the entire building is similar to an operating room in terms of air quality), electrostatic fogging, one-way traffic, separate waiting rooms post-pandemic for individuals who are unwell vs. well, rooming preferably unwell patients previous to well patients and many more. This is truly a forward-thinking office and one that will better address the current pandemic.
