I consent for myself/the patient to receive treatment from Dr Elona Gaball and associates at Inspire Smiles (Practice) during the COVID-19 outbreak. While I understand that Inspire Smiles is continuously reviewing and implementing recommendations to ensure the safest possible environment, I understand that no environment is totally risk free.
I understand there is much to learn about the newly emerged COVID-19, including how it spreads and is transmitted.
I understand that, based on what is currently known about COVID-19, the spread is thought to occur mostly from person-to-person via respiratory droplets during close contacts. I understand that close contact can occur from being within approximately 6 feet of someone with COVID-19 for a period of time, or by having direct contact with infectious secretions from someone with COVID-19.
I understand that carriers of COVID-19 may not show symptoms but may still be contagious.
I understand that I or the patient may have some risk of contracting the virus by being in, and by receiving treatment at, the Practice. However, I believe my being seen at the Practice is worth that risk.
