COVID-19 Policies and Procedures

In response to guidance from the Center for Disease Control, along with the State of New Jersey, The Heart House is working towards a plan to safely reopen each of our office locations and offer our patients all of the services they need and the excellent care they deserve. We will slowly begin offering in-office appointments for our established patients.

What to Expect During an In-Person Visit to The Heart House

Our office is implementing several safety measures to keep our patients, our staff and our providers safe so that we can continue to provide you the highest quality cardiac care.

1. We are following the Center for Diseases Control guidelines to minimize your possible exposure to the coronavirus.
2. We are requiring all of our staff to wear a surgical mask and abide by strict hand-washing guidelines.
3. We are sanitizing the waiting rooms, exam rooms, medical equipment and other surfaces after each use.
4. We are cleaning commonly touched surfaces in the office on a regular basis
5. When we schedule appointments, our team will screen all patients using CDC guidelines.
6. As an added level of safety, we are requiring all patients to wear a mask.  If you don’t have one, we will provide one for you.
7. We will check every patient’s temperature at check in using a special infrared thermometer.
8. To ensure everyone’s safety, if we have too many patients in the waiting room at once, we will have the patients wait in their car and we will call them when it is their turn for the visit or test.
9. To ensure social distancing, we have spaced out the seating in our waiting rooms.
10. While the State of NJ is under a lockdown, we are providing telehealth visits, using your phone or smart device for our established patients.  We are also seeing patients in one of our three open offices (Haddon Heights, Washington Township and Vineland) to provide the appropriate access to our doctors and nurses.
11. We look forward to continuing to provide care to all of our patients in the safest way.
