COVID-19 Updates
CDC Testing Guidelines
For Fully Vaccinated Individuals
- People who have symptoms of COVID-19.
- People who are fully vaccinated with the COVID-19 vaccine should be evaluated by their healthcare provider and tested for COVID-19 if indicated.
For Unvaccinated Individuals
- People without symptoms of COVID-19 such as:
- People not fully vaccinated with COVID-19 vaccine who have had close contact with someone with confirmed COVID-19 (including a person who does not have symptoms within 10 days of their positive test result).
- People not fully vaccinated with COVID-19 vaccine who have taken part in activities that put them at higher risk for COVID-19, such as attending large social or mass gatherings, or being in crowded indoor settings.
- People not fully vaccinated with COVID-19 vaccine who are prioritized for expanded community screening for COVID-19.
- People not fully vaccinated with COVID-19 vaccine who have been asked or referred to get testing by their school, workplace, healthcare provider, state, tribal, local or external icon, or territorial health department.
If you get tested because you have symptoms or were potentially exposed to the virus, you should stay away from others pending test results and follow the advice of your health care provider or a public health professional.

Wear Your Mask When You Visit.
Our dedicated staff are ready to care for you and your family. Please wear a mask when you come to our site. We will take your temperature and ask screening questions at the door.
Limited Visitors Policy
We request that patients coming in for an appointment bring no more than one additional person. Parents accompanying children for pediatric visits please if at all possible leave siblings at home.
Walk-in Visits
ChesPenn continues to offer walk-in visits to our patients. Based on your needs, we may redirect you to a telehealth visit.
Dental Services
We are currently only providing emergency dental services with limited exceptions. This policy follows the recommendation of the American Dental Association. Please bear with us. If you are in pain, please call for an appointment.
Telehealth Appointments
The majority of our visits are currently conducted via Telehealth calls. Telehealth can reduce the risk of exposure to the virus for you and for the community. A ChesPenn provider will call you to address your medical concerns by phone. Details of the process will be given to you when you make the appointment.
