Covid-19 Testing - Poor Safety Protocols, TriHealth Priority Care - Anderson, Beechmont Avenue, Cincinnati, OH, USA
3 years ago •reported by user-ygmyn723
TriHealth Priority Care, Anderson OH. Their website claims all locations do symptom/fever checks at the door, this place does NOT. The site also claimed you can wait in your car, but when you're there, they say you must sit in the waiting room. When I quoted their
website, the lady at the desk said "Oh that was put there by Google." I highly doubt Google edits TriHealth.com's official web pages! And they do indoor Coronavirus testing there! (That's in fact why I was there; I had symptoms). I grew worried since aerosols from exhaling the virus can hang in the air and remain infective for hours after a person leaves the room if there's not enough circulation and extreme-rated air filtering, neither of which they openly claimed to perform.
To top it off, they are still seeing normal patients for things like sprained ankles and migraines! So they're mixing patients directly suspected of Coronavirus with normal patients in the waiting room, and NOT making it clear that anyone who walks in there is at extremely high risk of sharing air with infected patients! (Unlike their regular doctor's office and hospital locations where people are filtered out if they have any symptoms.) And anyone going back for exams will breathe the same air, even though they clean surfaces between patients.
I contacted them three times by email, and via survey, and left Google Maps review all last month, STILL no contact back to reassure of any change or apology.
My negative test result barely mattered at the time, because I knew there was a huge risk that by going to even GET that test, I had the high risk of becoming infected anyway!
If any of their other Priority Care locations are handled this way, DO NOT GO, whether you have Covid symptoms or not. If you do, you'll likely infect others who come around or after you, and if you don't, you'll likely catch it!
