Last week the CDC (and State of Nevada) updated it’s mask mandate to allow fully vaccinated persons to go without a mask indoors in most situations. It does say people need to continue wearing a mask when going to the doctors, hospitals, long term nursing homes, public transport, homeless shelters, prisons, etc. At this time SDMI is not changing its policy. All patients and staff need to continue following our mask and COVID guidelines.Thank you for helping us keep everyone safe. To learn more about SDMI’s Safety guidelines click here.

In a continued effort to clarify SDMI’s COVI-19 policy, we would like to add to our most recent blog post. SDMI will not see any patients that have or are suspected to have COVID-19 for any type of procedure. Additionally, any patient that has an acute (within the last 2 weeks) onset of cough, fever, or shortness of breath will be referred to the hospital. If a patient has a chronic (long term issues) illness or are visiting for Pulmonary Embolism, we will continue to see them. “This is the only way to ensure that patients who are highly susceptible still have a low risk option for the studies that their lives depend on. COVID-19 is not the only disease we are fighting right now, patients need ports for chemo therapy, biopsies for diagnosis, people still have severe pain, and a multitude of other issues that they need answers to” Dr. David Steinberg, CEO

(Las Vegas, Nev) – Steinberg Diagnostic Medical Imaging (SDMI) continues their commitment to the Las Vegas Valley by caring for patients that have not been directly affected by COVID-19. With 8 out-patient radiology facilities SDMI has a unique opportunity to ensure patients can continue to receive the medical treatment they need.

SDMI will not see any patients that have or are suspected to have COVID-19 for any type of procedure. Additionally, any patient that is coughing will be turned away. “This is the only way to ensure that patients who are highly susceptible still have a low risk option for the studies that their lives depend on. COVID-19 is not the only disease we are fighting right now, patients need ports for chemotherapy, biopsies for diagnosis, people still have severe pain, and a multitude of other issues that they need answers to” Dr. David Steinberg, CEO.

In addition, SDMI is carefully monitoring all employees, any employee that is coughing or has had direct contact with a COVID-19 patient will be put on 14-day quarantine. To ensure staff takes extra precaution with any symptom Dr. David Steinberg and business partner Dr. Mark Winkler have promised to not only keep the business open for patients but for staff alike. There will be NO lay-offs of full time employees and anyone who does not have the adequate PTO (paid time off) to stay home for the full 14 days will be allowed to accrue a negative PTO balance. “I can’t have people worried about losing their homes and not being able to pay their bills” said Dr Steinberg when he instituted this policy. “We need to be a responsible corporate neighbor and stay open to care for those that need us.”
