 With recent changes to executive orders by Governor Whitmer, Family Health Care (FHC) is working to bring back additional services that were limited during the onset of COVID-19. Many of these changes will take place starting on Monday, June 1. Those who are seeking medical and dental services deemed “non-essential” will now have the ability to schedule appointments. Pharmacies in three locations will now be open for in-person pickup. Those coming to FHC’s health centers for appointments may notice some changes. “Safety of our patients and staff is a top priority,” says Kathy Sather, President & CEO. “While you may not be able to see our staff’s faces due to the mask they wear, know they are happy and eager to help you.” Changes include pre-screening and door screening of all patients entering the buildings. Masks are required for everyone entering the building; cloth masks are acceptable. Red markers have been placed on the floor to promote social distancing, and chairs are spaced six feet apart. Some reception areas have also had new windows installed. Patients can also be assured that exam rooms are being thoroughly disinfected between patient visits. Staff will be taking all necessary precautions, including proper protective equipment, when interacting with patients. Future changes include the addition of ultraviolet light and air cleaning systems to exam rooms. Here is a current update on services and hours at Family Health Care Clinics: TELEHEALTH Telehealth services are now available for non-life threatening medical concerns, behavioral health appointments and urgent dental needs.
