CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19): CHECK HERE FOR UPDATES AND A FREE RISK SCREENING > Virtual Care Keeping You Safe At Missouri Baptist we are ready to care for you - with new safety precautions and other important steps to make your visit an easy one and get you back to the care you need. When you visit, you’ll notice some things are different. This was done with your safety in mind. PARKING Parking is available throughout the campus. Valet services are offered at the main entrance, Building D and the entrance to Medical Office Buildings A/B. TESTING AND SCREENING Our staff will guide everyone through wellness checks upon arrival. At this time, patients coming in for surgeries and some procedures are required to be tested for COVID-19 as part of the standard pre-procedure process. We will work with you to schedule the test and refer you to the proper testing site. If needed, you will have your COVID-19 test 48-72 hours in advance of the scheduled procedure, and then will need to quarantine yourself between the testing and the procedure to reduce your risk of exposure. MASKING Patients, visitors and staff must wear face masks at all BJC HealthCare facilities. Review complete masking guidelines. CHECK-IN We have redesigned our registration process to reduce contact. You may notice additional clear shields around front desk areas and reconfigured waiting rooms. This is intended to protect against virus transmission. We also encourage electronic payment when possible. You may also have the ability to do an e-check in to fill out paperwork and pay for your visit on your smartphone or computer as soon as your appointment is scheduled to reduce time inside the office. VISITORS We’re committed to the health and safety of our patients, families and community. We recognize the role loved ones play in the healing process and are committed to providing our patients with an environment that is both warm and supportive, and safely designed to prevent transmission of COVID-19. Until the threat of COVID-19 has been significantly reduced, a limited visitor policy is in place. Read the full BJC Visitor Policy. PHYSICAL DISTANCING Signs and floor decals are being installed throughout our hospital to illustrate the six feet recommended for physical distancing between you and others. Chairs in our waiting rooms and tables in our cafeterias have been rearranged to comply with spacing recommendations. CLEAN COMMON AREAS In addition to our normally stringent cleaning protocols, our environmental services team has increased its sanitization protocols around the facility. You may see additional people wiping down handrails, elevator buttons and chairs throughout the day. Hand hygiene stations are positioned throughout the hospital to encourage frequent hand washing. CAFETERIA Patient meals continue to be prepared in designated, clean spaces with limited traffic. In our public cafeteria, there have been several changes to reduce the need for staff or visitors to interact with high-touch items. For example, electronic payments are requested in lieu of cash. A member of our food and nutrition team will be happy to serve all the options rather than asking people to self-serve at salad bars or other stations. And, a full array of bottled or canned beverages is available vs. self-serve. PATIENT ROOMS To help protect you the entire time of your stay, our environmental services teams remains focused on CDC protocols to disinfect high-touch areas in patient rooms such as door handles, light switches, and tables. The lounging chairs in patient rooms are made of textiles that are easily cleaned. Traffic in and out of patient rooms is limited to essential staff and visitors. EMPLOYEE PRECAUTIONS All employees working at a BJC facility are screened daily for symptoms. We emphasize proper hand hygiene and provide the appropriate gowns, gloves, and masks in accordance with CDC guidelines. We encourage our staff to practice physical distancing whenever possible in an effort to keep one another safe and ready to care for you. When the job allows, our non-clinical staff has been asked to work from home to limit the traffic through our facilities. OUR PROMISE TO YOU When you come to Missouri Baptist, you will find a clean and disinfected environment with safety precautions such as social distancing and masking in place. Signs will guide you around the facility, and even though we have limited visitors, we promise to keep those important to you informed. Don’t ignore something as important as your health. When you are ready for us, we will be ready for you.
