Steinberg Diagnostic Medical Imaging continues to evolve with changing needs of Southern Nevada during COVID-19 Pandemic

LAS VEGAS, April 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Steinberg Diagnostic Medical Imaging (SDMI) recognizes the increasing need for COVID-19 or symptomatic patients to have diagnostic imaging options outside of the hospital.  As a result, SDMI is dedicating their Green Valley location at 4 Sunset Way in Henderson, as a COVID symptom friendly imaging center.   

"Setting policy in this unprecedented time has been a challenge, it's difficult to anticipate our patient's needs.  We continue to evolve our approach as the data and needs change," said Dr. David Steinberg. Steinberg has been leading his team throughout this pandemic consistently vowing to keep staff employed and facilities open. "This next step, turning one location into a symptom friendly center, allows us to meet the needs of all patients," something SDMI has been doing for over 30 years.

SDMI wants patients to understand this comes with a few guidelines:

• Symptomatic patients will not be turned away, however SDMI cannot diagnose or test for COVID-19.
• In order to ensure that the equipment and rooms get extra sanitization, SDMI will limit the number of patients on the schedule. Patients can trust that SDMI has always used medical grade disinfectant.
• The Green Valley location will offer: CT, MRI & X-Ray
• All employees and patients will be required to wear a mask at all times

The employees staffing the Green Valley location have volunteered to work in this Covid-19 symptomatic environment.  Having employees that are dedicated to patient care and keeping each center clean and sanitized was key in this decision.  SDMI is driven by their vision: Be the medical imaging provider of choice for every patient and physician, and the employer of choice for our community.
