We want you to know that since COVID-19 started, safety has been and continues to be our number one priority. We continue to use the Centers for Disease guidelines for how we manage COVID-19 with our patients and staff. As a result, you will not notice any major changes as a result of the Delta Variant. We will still be taking temperatures at the door, asking a series of screening questions and requesting that all patients remain masked while inside our buildings.

What should you be doing to protect yourself from this and all strains of COVID-19?

The best thing that you can do is get vaccinated, which you can do at NorthLakes or this link can help you find a place, is to receive the vaccine: https://www.vaccines.gov/search/

Wearing a mask, keeping your distance and washing your hands still remain great ways to help keep you safe from the virus.
