COVID-19 (Coronavirus) UPDATES

With all of the recent news surrounding COVID-19 (coronavirus), we wanted to take a moment to let you know how we’re keeping Lam Family Medicine healthy and safe for our team and patients.

Thankfully, although there is still much to learn about the coronavirus, the CDC’s suggested protocols for addressing it are identical to those for reducing the spread of common cold and flu. Nonetheless, we are intensifying our efforts around best practices for virus prevention. Here are the specific steps we’re taking at Lam Family Medicine:
  • ​Any staff member who could potentially be sick with fever, cold or flu symptoms is staying home. If a staff member shows cold or flu symptoms at work, we will send them home.
  • We are posting signs about handwashing etiquette and are reinforcing that message throughout the day. 
  • In addition to our regular daily maintenance, we will start and end each day by wiping down all shared hard surfaces with Alkyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride .28%. That active ingredient has been shown to be effective against coronaviruses in concentrations above 0.05%.
  • Throughout the day and between patients we will also disinfect shared surfaces such as door knobs, chairs, exam tables, medical equipment, bathroom fixtures, and any shared tools such as pens, clipboards, stethoscopes, and blood pressure cuffs.
  • We are making alcohol-based hand sanitizer available to staff and clients at the front desk.
  • We will discourage hugs and handshakes for the time being.
Here’s how you can help:
  • Please provide us with prior notice of your arrival.  
  • We request that any patient who feels they are potentially sick with a cough, cold, temperature, or flu-like symptoms to please call us at (808) 955-7897.  
  • We discourage walk-ins for the time being.  Please call us at (808) 955-7897 to schedule an appointment prior to your arrival in our office. Same day appointments are typically available.
​
​Safety is always our number one priority. These steps, along with your personal courtesy and caution, will help Lam Family Medicine play our part in keeping our community safe and healthy.   Please let us know if you have any questions.  Mahalo Nui Loa.
