A Frontline Position To Safeguard Patients Has Been Undertaken By Leading IVF Facility In The UAE

Medical experts in the UAE have stepped up their game with incessant efforts to fight against the spread of COVID-19. Numerous healthcare facilities have enforced unique steps at their facilities to align with governments policies.

As a responsible IVF brand, it is important that we collaborate with the governments policies and mobilize action plans that protect patients, staff and doctors and yet cater to the wants of our patients. As such, our strategy makes use of safety precautions along with technology utilization, stated Dr Laura Melado, IVF Specialist of IVI Middle East Fertility Clinic.

As most of the patients at the clinic recently are the ones amidst treatment, use of safe antimicrobial / disinfectant products as suggested by Center for Disease Control (CDC) has been undertaken. In addition, a team of committed and specially trained staff from the housekeeping department makes sure deep cleaning of the clinic at specific intervals where special care is been taken to clean door handles, chairs, sofa, coffee machines, water dispensers, tables and all common touch points.

To implant awareness among our staff and patients, we have a dedicated nurse who is screening every visitor entering the clinic for increased body temperature, if any. Additionally, alcohol-based sanitizers are displayed at accessible locations to help patients sanitize hands after entering the clinic. To make sure that we follow social distancing, the waiting area at the reception and other clinic premises have been
re-arranged to remain a one meter distance between people. Several warning labels have also been pasted on the chairs and sofas of the clinic premises. We have also installed signage throughout the clinic reiterating basic hygiene fundamentals, inclusive of - cover your cough, how to wash your hands, social distancing and
COVID-19 symptoms to look out for, added Dr Laura.

At a time when individuals across the globe are taking necessary precautions to contain the spread of COVID-19, raising the capacities and enforcing preventive measures at hospitals will certainly help diminish the effect of the Coronavirus threat on UAE patients, residents and visitors.
