After temporarily closing the center to protect its patients and staff during the COVID-19 pandemic, Shopko Optical will reopen its Manitowoc center today.
The company has consistently reviewed and evaluated guidance from the CDC and the AOA, as well as various federal, state, and local authorities, and will reopen in an environment that protects its staff, doctors, patients, and the community it serves.
Shopko Optical staff will take the temperatures of patients and staff before they enter the center. In addition, the center will limit the patient schedule to reduce the number of people in the office at any given time.
To ensure proper social distancing, patients will be asked to arrive to appointments alone, and staff and patients will allow six feet of distance between them whenever possible.
Masks will be worn by Shopko Optical staff and patients are asked to arrive with a face covering of their own.
