At USF Health, we are working to ensure patient and frontline staff safety continues to be a priority.
As State restrictions on hospitals and clinics are lifted, you now have more options for seeing our physicians and providers in-person. To help protect both you and our clinical teams, USF Health has implemented new protocols for when you visit our clinical facilities.
These measures will make your appointment seem different than previous visits, but rest assured they are meant as added precautions for keeping everyone safe during the COVID-19 pandemic. Screening you as you enter our facilities and our team wearing masks are some examples of what you will experience.
We are taking these vital precautions to protect our patients and our frontline staff and closely monitor the official health guidelines of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Florida Department of Health.
Please review the details below prior to your appointment to help you have a better and safe patient experience at your next visit.
If you are exhibiting any of these symptoms before your scheduled appointment, please call 813-974-2201 and press option 2.
Effective Tuesday, September 1, USF Health clinics only allow one visitor per patient to preserve social distancing in our facilities. If patient waiting areas exceed our capacity, visitors may be asked to return to their vehicle to participate in the visit virtually.
At USF Health, we continue to conduct screenings at our entry points to our buildings for patients and visitors. Entry into any USF Health clinical facility will include screenings which can consist of several questions about your recent exposure risks but will also involve taking your temperature. Frontline staff and vendors are screened for COVID-19 symptoms daily.
If you are an established USF Health patient and would like to be tested for COVID-19, please call 813-974-2201.Our health care providers and staff will continue to follow the appropriate measures to keep our patients safe by wearing PPE masks and gloves, as well as frequently washing their hands. We require all patients to wear a facial covering or mask while in our facilities and practice social distancing measures.
We have reorganized our waiting areas to keep patients a safe distance away from others and have separate waiting areas for patients with respiratory illnesses or symptoms. We also have alcohol-based hand sanitizers available in all of the reception, waiting, and patient areas. Routine cleaning and disinfection protocols take place inpatient areas.
All Ambulatory Surgery Center patients are screened through the pre-admission process and then again through COVID-19 testing prior to the surgical/procedure date. At any time, if your symptoms change or you have any questions, a member of the USF team is available to address and assist.
Our valet services may remain limited at a number of our locations. We apologize for the inconvenience.
In addition, we have also made updates to our billing policies during this time and continue to offer financial assistance to those with financial hardships.
