ALLIED SPINE HAS RE-OPENED FOR BUSINESS!!

Thank you on behalf of everyone at Allied Spine and Sports Chiropractic for your loyalty, support and patience through this worldwide pandemic. There is nothing more important to us than meeting the needs of our patients and staying committed to do our part to stop the spread of this virus.

During these days of self-isolation and increased awareness of health and safety, the team at Allied Spine and Sports Chiropractic has been doing its part to ensure your safety as we take precautions to flatten the curve. As we continue to respond to the ever-changing environment around COVID-19, the safety of our patients, staff and doctors is our highest priority.

Allied Spine and Sports Chiropractic is relying on guidance from CDC and WHO as well as state and local healthcare organizations to direct our actions. We remain committed to providing the highest quality chiropractic healthcare in the area. We understand that many of our patients may feel uneasy about returning to public buildings. As a precautionary measure, we have implemented increased hygiene routines, monitoring and operations protocols.

Healthcare Facility Policy

We are asking our patients and doctors to make some special considerations. Where and when possible, patients are asked to not bring guests with them during their visit and, if they do, to have them wait in their car, unless the patient is a minor or need a caregiver. We have removed all non-essential treatment room items. Lobby chairs are spaced six feet apart to comply with the current recommendations of social distancing. At this time we recommend to wait in your car until your appointment is available. A limited number of people will be allowed into the facility for each appointment time slot.

Patient Procedural Changes

1. All patient paperwork will now be electronic.

2. We will ask you to please take your temperature before you come.

3. To Check-In for your appointment- text our Google voice number ( 401-285-0032). Please be sure to include your name in your message so we can get you checked in. We are asking that you remain in your car until we contact you back that we are ready for your appointment. Please note this number is ONLY for checking in and should not be used to schedule or change appointments.

4. We will monitor temperature by touchless infrared thermometers.

5. Our patients and staff must wear approved masks for all in office interactions.

6. We will continue our stringent cleaning procedures of all used equipment between patients.

7. We will now offer an additional service of rehab exercises delivered by desktop or mobile device.

8. We will utilize wireless credit card terminal payments with sanitized covered keypads

9. We will ask you to please notify us if you or someone you’ve had close contact with have had any COVID symptoms or traveled to or from a hotspot: Fever, Cough or Shortness of Breath.

10. Avoid coughing, sneezing or touching face- if you need to, please use the office supplied sanitizer and tissues.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we implement these changes,

Effective Immediately-

Today, we have been told by the Governor of New York Andrew Coumo to suspend treatments to all patients. We will be starting with a 2 week suspension of our business operations in both locations.

This is a difficult decision that has been made for us by the State of New York.

The rationale to close is to protect our patients, staff and our public population. We understand that this will impact us financially as a business and as a staff we are working on options to communicate with you privately to perform telemedicine consultations.

Many of our patients benefit from our Doctor’s at home exercise prescriptions. Exercise therapy is an essential part of strengthening a dysfunctional and painful area. If we have not given you exercises yet please reach out to us and we will get them to you.

We encourage you to communicate with us regarding your care during this period.

We have received new medical data from the Journal of Sport and Health Science, March 2020, ”COVID-19; there is a need to maintain regular physical activity while taking precautions.

Until we meet again, please continue safe practices of hand washing, social distancing and know that we will be here if you need us.

Stay Healthy,
Dr. Barrett Parker, Dr Tim Daughton, Dr. Greg Ramsden

Do you suffer from back, hip, knee or ankle pain? If so then a pair of custom fit orthotics may be the answer! Some insurances even cover the full cost.

Call our office today to schedule an appointment to discuss if orthotics are the right fit for you.
