Pagosa Springs Medical Center practices COVID-19 safety protocols to ensure the safety of both our patients and our employees.
At this time, we are requiring everyone to be screened at the screening tent in front of the PSMC building before they can enter the building. This ensures that those who have COVID-19 symptoms can get care, while limiting exposure to others. If someone exhibits COVID-19 symptoms when they arrive at the tent, they will then go to our COVID-19 Treatment Room for additional care.
Also, all patients and employees must wear masks when entering PSMC. If possible, please bring a personal mask, saving valuable PPE for our employees. If you do not have a mask, one will be given to you.
Patients needing to see their provider for reasons other than COVID-19 are still able to at PSMC. Most services, including primary care, urgent walk-in care, elective and emergent surgical care, diagnostic services, and emergency care are currently available in person.
Patients can also schedule for routine blood tests through our lab. Call 970-731-3700 to schedule an appointment.
Watch the following 2-minute video to learn more.
Telephone visits are available as an option to in-person visits and are a useful health management tool to allow you to visit with your triage nurse or provider. Telehealth visits are similar to telephone visits but incorporate video, through your home computer or your smart phone, via a link sent to your email or a text message sent to your phone.
Both options allow you to receive medical care while staying safely at home. It may be determined through your telephone or telehealth visit that an in-person appointment is still necessary. For more information, contact PSMC at 970-731-3700.
