Current COVID-19 Policies & Procedures

Posted on by kaplanbarrongroup

As of Monday, May 11th, we are starting to screen temperatures and requiring masks of any kind (2 years and older) to anyone entering our building.

Please be aware that if you are coming in for an appointment, the nurse will meet you at the door and screen your temperature after the front desk calls you to inform you we are ready for you.

If you need to come to our office for another reason, PLEASE CALL us before walking in so we can try to help you over the phone and screen you appropriately.

The COVID-19 outbreak updates at Kaplan Barron.  Listed below is what Kaplan Barron is doing to protect our patients, parents, and community.

  • We are asking you to PLEASE enter in the well door or sick door, depending on your child’s appointment. We have separate doors and waiting rooms for well and sick. If you are sick, PLEASE enter in the sick side and vice-versa. Our goal and your goal is to keep our well kids well and to stop the spread of diseases!
  • We are having designated well and sick exam rooms as well and sick doctors and nurses. Our goal with this is to prevent the spread of disease by keeping the well quarantined to certain exam rooms and areas of the building, away from sick children.
  • Our check-in process has changed.  You will call our office when you arrive in the parking lot.  Our front desk staff will update your demographics, collect your co-pay if necessary or any balances owed.  We will call you when the nurse/room is ready.  Once you enter the building through the correct well/sick door, you will be greeted by a nurse who will take you immediately to your exam room.
  • If you need to come to a waiting room, we have properly socially distanced our seating and removed all toys from the waiting rooms.
  • Our staff is overly cautious cleaning and disinfecting patient rooms, waiting rooms, door handles, countertops, chairs, pens, anything and everything we can wipe down.
  • If you have a cough, please cover your mouth with a tissue, your shirt, or mask if available.
  • If you are scheduled for a well check-up but have sick symptoms, please call our office prior to arrival to make the necessary adjustments. You will be asked to enter through the sick door because you have sick symptoms.

As of June, the state of Kentucky declared that vaccinated people do not need to wear masks or physical distance in most settings. Despite this, Kaplan Barron Pediatrics is considered a medical facility. Therefore MASKS ARE STILL REQUIRED TO BE WORN INSIDE. If you or your child(ren) are patients at Kaplan Barron Pediatrics and have an upcoming appointment, please remember to bring & wear your mask.

We appreciate your cooperation and look forward to seeing you in our offices soon!
