ADDS COVID-19 Updates

EFFECTIVE NOVEMBER 9TH, 2020

ADDS will be going back to TELEHEALTH ONLY evaluations and treatment services effective immediately.  All evaluations will be scheduled for telehealth appointments until further notice.  ADDS will still schedule Federal drug screens (urinalysis or UAs), but no other UAs will be scheduled until further notice.  If you have any questions, please call an ADDS office – see contact information at the bottom of this page.

To protect the health of the public and our staff if you come to an ADDS office:

When you arrive, you must wear a mask, use hand sanitizer, and take your temperature on entry.  Please bring your own mask! ADDS staff will ask you some COVID-19 questions.  You may be refused services and referred to appropriate medical care based on display of symptoms and temperature check results.  Situations will be handled on a case-by-case basis where staff or clients have a medical excuse or reason that they cannot wear a mask for prolonged periods of time.

If you come in with disposable gloves on, you must still use hand sanitizer and need to dispose of the gloves you had on your hands when you came in.

All clients in treatment programs will be required to sign off on this acknowledgement and this will be documented in their electronic health record chart.

Refusal to follow our safety procedures will result in refused services.  In the case that staff need to turn a client away due to risk of COVID-19 or any other reason, this will be documented and then staff will notify any applicable parties of this refusal as needed with valid consent on file.

Please check out our  Facebook page for our statement about the Coronavirus and some resources to stay healthy and safe.

Please call ahead to cancel appointments if you have symptoms of the Coronavirus!  See Iowa Department of Public Health’s instructions on this.
