Covid-19 Update
Covid Relief Fund Ending
To our valued patients without insurance. The federal fund established to pay for COVID related testing, treatment and vaccinations has not been renewed. There are many local options for low-cost testing. If you would like to come to Valley Immediate Care for your testing or treatment, we will be glad to work with you on a variety of payments options.
Wash Hands Frequently
Increased frequency of handwashing is one of the most effective means of preventing the spread of illness
Cover Your Cough Diligently
Covering our cough can help reduce the risk to others by reducing aerosolized respiratory droplets
Avoid Touching Your Face
Touching a surface that harbors viruses and then touching nose, mouth, or eyes is a primary mode of transmission
Stay Home If You Are Sick
If at all possible, stay home when you are not feeling well. Social isolation can do much to stop the spread of viral infections
