Spectrum Health Belding Family Medicine Resumes Outpatient Services
BELDING, Mich., June 2, 2020 – Belding area patients can once again utilize Spectrum Health Belding Family Medicine for their outpatient lab and X-ray needs when the family clinic reopens June 8.
In late March all services were temporarily moved from Belding Family Medicine as part of the COVID-19 response.
“We continue to look for ways to open up access for the convenience of our patients,” said lab manager Ross Rozeveld. “This change will offer more convenience to Belding area families, while allowing safe social distancing for our patients and staff.”
Hours for the X-ray and lab services at the Belding site will be 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Friday.
Patients needing to see a provider will continue to visit Spectrum Health United Hospital Internal Medicine and Pediatrics and Specialty Clinic at 707 S. Greenville West Drive in Greenville.
You can also schedule a virtual visit with your provider via Spectrum Health Now. Download the Spectrum Health Now app to get started or call 616.794.0940 to schedule a visit.
Visitors to Belding Family Medicine will notice changes due to the COVID-19 virus, as extra safety measures have been put in place at all Spectrum Health facilities, including:
- Frequent and extensive cleaning, especially in high touch areas
- Screening employees, patients and visitors
- Requiring everyone to use hand sanitizer and wear masks, which are provided onsite
- Having team members wear appropriate personal protective equipment
- Setting up waiting rooms differently and restructuring appointments scheduling to minimize wait times and limit contact between patients
- Placing appropriate signage throughout spaces to maintain social distancing
