Commitment to Safety

Despite the challenges to the healthcare community posed by COVID-19, River’s Edge Pharmacy remains undeterred from our mission to provide expert, compassionate care. To ensure complete safety for our patients and staff, each River’s Edge Infusion Center enforces CDC Guidelines inside each facility. We are in this together.

River's Edge Pharmacy Infusion Centers - Safety Measures
SCREENING FOR COVID-19 SYMPTOMS
We screen all patients and visitors for COVID-19 symptoms. Prior to an appointment, each patient is contacted by a River’s Edge staff member and asked about any symptoms. When patients arrive for an appointment, their temperature is checked immediately. Additionally, they and their guests will be asked about any cough, fever, and other symptoms of respiratory virus infection that they or others in their household may be experiencing. After each appointment, River’s Edge staff members monitor the patient’s health with the use of detailed screening questionnaires before scheduling further appointments. Additionally, each River’s Edge employee utilizes the CuroRX Screening Survey feature before reporting to work.

HAND SANITIZER
Hand sanitizer is available at each entrance and at numerous locations throughout each River’s Edge facility. All patients and guests are asked to sanitize their hands when entering the building. In addition, each member of our health care staff sanitizes their hands before and after each patient encounter.

DISINFECTING
Each facility is sterilized with hospital-grade disinfectant three times a day.

MASKS FOR STAFF
All River’s Edge Pharmacy staff members wear masks. The type of mask staff members wear is determined by the type of care they provide, to best ensure their safety and the safety of our patients.

MASKS FOR PATIENTS & GUESTS
All patients and guests of patients will be asked to wear a mask or cloth face covering while in the facilities. Patients may bring their own masks. And if patients do not have one, face masks will be made available to them.
