Drive Through Pediatric Clinic Offer Best Safety During COVID19

Your space in your car means you have control over some factors that could affect your health and welfare. This is one of the main advantage of a drive through clinic.

Drive-through for a Checkup

Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 has turned the world upside down. Healthcare systems that revolved around infection control now find it necessary to revamp operations to cope with the highly infectious COVID-19. Hospitals, which welcomed patients in for comprehensive treatment, are offering telemedicine services for consultations from home to limit patient visits. However, some of the children might require visiting a pediatrician for a clinical examination. Though we have routine pediatric outpatients functioning inside the hospital, we have opened a drive-through clinic for children for the families who do not want to enter the hospital

Drive-through Pediatric Clinic Offers Distinct Advantages

  • Children do not need to enter the hospital
  • They do not come in contact with other patients
  • Open air greatly reduces the chances of infection

A drive-through is better than teleconsultation because:

  • The clinic enables clinical examination by experts
  • The clinician can directly interact with the child

Healthcare needs are evolving and so should the healthcare delivery system. Drive through clinics offer a safe alternative for providing clinical care with minimum exposure to infections.

Drive in with your child for a comprehensive pediatric check-up by our specialists in our Drive Through Pediatric Clinic.
