AS WE CONTINUE TO RESPOND TO THE EVER-CHANGING ENVIRONMENT AROUND COVID-19, THE SAFETY OF OUR PATIENTS, STAFF AND DOCTORS IS OUR HIGHEST PRIORITY.WE UNDERSTAND THAT NEW INFORMATION SURROUNDING THE CHANGING LANDSCAPE OF OUR EVERYDAY ROUTINES HAS MANY FEELING CONCERNED.
AS WE NAVIGATE THIS SITUATION, A.P.I.C. THERAPY CENTER IS RELYING ON GUIDANCE FROM NATIONAL AND LOCAL CHIROPRACTIC ASSOCIATIONS AND HEALTHCARE ORGANIZATIONS TO DIRECT OUR ACTIONS.MANY, INCLUDING THE INTERNATIONAL CHIROPRACTORS ASSOCIATION, VIEW CHIROPRACTIC CARE AS AN ESSENTIAL HEALTHCARE SERVICE THAT CAN BE USED BY PATIENTS WITH A WIDE ARRAY OF HEALTH CONDITIONS.
WE ARE CLOSELY MONITORING RECOMMENDATIONS AND PROTOCOLS ESTABLISHED BY THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION (WHO), THE U.S. CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION (CDC),AS WELL AS STATE AND LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENTS.

A.P.I.C. THERAPY CENTER IS ?COMMITTED TO ERADICATING THIS DREADFUL DISEASE, WHICH HAS PUT MUCH OF THE WORLD AT RISK AND THREATENS TO OVERWHELM THE U.S. HEALTHCARE SYSTEM. AS PORTAL-OF-ENTRY HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS, DOCTORS OF CHIROPRACTIC ARE EDUCATED AND LICENSED TO DIAGNOSE, TREAT, AND CO-MANAGE PATIENTS. IN A HEALTHCARE SYSTEM BEING STRETCHED TO ITS LIMIT, DCS CAN BE A VALUABLE RESOURCE TO TAP FOR ADDITIONAL PATIENT SUPPORT.? DOCTORS OF CHIROPRACTIC (DCS) ARE PRIMARY-CONTACT HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS WHO PROVIDE ESSENTIAL CARE, INCLUDING (BUT NOT LIMITED TO)MANAGING ACUTE AND URGENT MUSCULOSKELETAL CONDITIONS. THESE SERVICES ARE CRITICAL FOR MANAGING CASES THAT OTHERWISE COULD END UP IN EMERGENCY ROOMS, WORSENING AN ALREADY DIFFICULT SITUATION. IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT CHIROPRACTIC SERVICES ALSO KEEP IN PLACE HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS, FIRST RESPONDERS AND OTHERS WHO HAVE PHYSICALLY STRENUOUS JOBS THAT SUPPORT CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE,SUCH AS TRUCK DRIVERS WHO CONTINUE TO ENSURE THAT AMERICA’S HEALTHCARE AND FOOD SUPPLIES GET TO WHERE THEY ARE NEEDED DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC.?
