Operational Updates Related to Coronavirus
At AHN Pediatrics, we want to assure our patients and families that it safe to bring your children to our offices. We continue to follow very strict scheduling, masking, social distancing and sanitizing measures. Following the guidance of the CDC and the State and County Health Departments. It is vitally important that our patients stay up to date on their vaccines for their own health and safety and that of their families and communities. It is also important that children receive preventive exams from their regular pediatrician at their medical home.
We are grateful for your patience and understanding during these stressful times. Our priority continues to be the health and well-being of our patients and their families. Remember, we are here for you. If you have any questions or concerns about your children, please don’t hesitate to call your AHN Pediatrics office and speak with one of our nurses/clinical staff.
After Hours Telehealth Options:
As part of our efforts to care for our patients and minimize exposure during this time of increased social distancing, our Pediatric Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants are available for patients calling after hours with urgent, acute symptoms that don’t require an emergency room visit, but that cannot wait until the next day.
When a patient calls their AHN Pediatrics office after hours, one of our pediatric triage nurses will review their symptoms and determine the appropriate course of action. Some concerns can be addressed by the nurse over the phone. Other non-urgent concerns may be sent to the patient’s regular AHN Pediatrics office for follow-up the next business day. After hours telehealth appointments are available as follows: Monday through Friday from 4:00 PM to 12:00 AM and Saturday and Sunday from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM. Our staffing is limited during these hours, so we ask that you call your regular AHN Pediatrics office during normal business hours regarding any non-urgent issues or symptoms or that arise earlier in the day.
Our priority continues to be the health and well-being of our patients and their families. We know how stressful these times are, and we want to reiterate that we are here for you. If you have any questions or concerns about your children, please don’t hesitate to call your AHN Pediatrics office and speak with one of our nurses/clinical staff.
We want to ensure that you have the best guidance, support and care for your family. We are constantly evaluating this rapidly changing situation, and we will advise you of any changes as quickly as possible.
Thank you for your patience and understanding,
The Providers and Staff of AHN Pediatrics.
