ASK US ABOUT OUR CCP LIBRARY! 

We have books on a variety of topics for both parents and children, and we are happy to sign them out to you for one - two weeks at a time. We politely ask that you are gentle with our books so that others can benefit from them as well. We have age-appropriate books on many topics, including but not limited to, ADHD, Depression, Anxiety, OCD, Grief and Loss, Chronic Illness, Autism, Food Allergies, Black Excellence and Heritage, LGBTQIA+, Bullying, Asian Excellence and Heritage, Abuse/Domestic Violence, etc.

CCP Mask Policy

Most patients and families will not need to wear a mask in our office. However, you do still need to wear a mask if you have:

 - A fever or other flu like symptoms

- A known COVID-19 infection and are in the isolation period

- A known exposure to COVID-19 within the last 10 days

 Masks will be required not only for sick patients, but also anyone accompanying them to the office, should any of the above   apply to them. Kindly mask if you are asked to do so by CCP staff.

 Individuals who prefer to wear a mask while in our office regardless of their symptoms or exposures are welcome to do so.

 The health and wellness of our patients, families, and staff is a top priority here at Crown Colony Pediatrics. Because of this,   for your safety, you may find our office staff still masked on occasion for reasons other than COVID-19.

 As a courtesy, the clinical staff will ask you at all non-sick visits if you'd prefer us to wear a mask. Please do not hesitate to   say yes if that is what you prefer. We are happy to accommodate.

 Please note that the Department of Public Health is continuing to track COVID-19 in the community, and masks may   become required again in our office if there is an increase in respiratory illnesses. For the safety of our patients and staff, we   ask that you respect this request.

COVID Screening

We will no longer be asking screening questions before a visit.

However, you may be asked the screening questions upon check in. Please let us know if you have been exposed to someone with COVID-19 in the last 10 days or have any of these symptoms: fever, chills, body aches, fatigue, cough, difficulty breathing, sore throat, congestion, runny nose, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, headache, or loss of taste or smell.

MENTAL HEALTH:

CCP cares deeply about mental health. As much as parenthood can be filled with great joy and excitement, it can also be stressful. We are here to support your family. Kelly Pearson is a LMHC that works with new parents and children of all ages. Karen Lee, RN, is our medical home coordinator who supports families in a multitude of ways, including accessing community resources for families. Our pediatricians are trained to screen for and connect families in need with care. Please reach out to any of our staff if you are in need of assistance.
