Patient Safety Practices for COVID 19

Patient safety is our utmost priority at My MD Personal Family Care. We have maximized safety measures for both patients and staff due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Please be aware that the highest safety standards that are mandated by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Dare County Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) have been replicated to the best of our ability.

• Patients remain in their cars until appointment time
• Follow the 3 W’s: Wash hands for 30 seconds or use Alcohol-based Hand Sanitizer regularly, wear face coverings , and wait 6 feet apart
