Effective April 6th 2021, Women’s Health Advantage will still maintain our COVID-19 policy which requires ALL patients to wear a mask while in our offices. We are still not allowing any children or visitors at this time. The only exception is for OB patients with ultrasound appointments — you may bring one adult visitor to the ultrasound appointment only.
We will re-evaluate these policies on a regular basis and will inform you of any changes.
An important announcement for all our WHA pregnant patients—
Governor Holcomb announced that pregnant women in Indiana are now eligible to receive the COVID-19 vaccine. The Indiana Department of Health states that the data supports that pregnant women are at higher risk for complications from COVID-19 infection.
• If you are pregnant and would like to schedule your COVID-19 vaccination, please visit the following link: https://www.coronavirus.in.gov/vaccine/index.htm
• Your provider at Women’s Health Advantage will discuss the vaccine with you if you are interested. No patient is obligated to receive the vaccine—we encourage you to discuss it with your provider to make your own decision.
In addition to our social distancing and mask requirements, we want to remind patients of our current visitor policy:
Please do not bring children or guests with you to your appointment, unless you are an OB patient with an ultrasound scheduled—then you may bring one adult along with you. After the ultrasound is finished, your adult visitor must wait in their car for the rest of the appointment.
Our whole staff wants to thank you for following these policies and continuing to do your part!
Getting the COVID vaccine as soon as possible is the safest choice for most people. However, vaccine trial tests have not yet been completed for pregnant and breastfeeding women.
We encourage pregnant women to review the most recent information regarding pregnancy and the vaccine, available here.
