The situation is very fluid: however, we will endeavor to keep you up to date with the changes as new regulations, guidance, and guidelines are given.
On March 25, 2020, the Governor of New Mexico issued a Public Health Emergency Order imposing temporary restrictions on non-essential health care services, procedures and surgeries.
Here is what La Casa Family Health Center has in place:
Telehealth Visits
Our health centers remain open. In effort to ensure the safety of our patients, staff, and community we are offering telehealth services for medical and behavioral health services. Telehealth visits reduces the risk of spreading or exposure of COVID-19 through face-to-face contact. Telehealth visits have been used to treat a number of medical concerns. Please note that lab or pharmacy scripts will be electronically sent to the lab or pharmacy of your choice. Contact a La Casa location nearest you to schedule your appointment today!

Why Telehealth Appointments?
During COVID-19, Telehealth appointments are the best way to keep yourself and family members safe while we continue to care for your health needs.
Can I receive medication prescriptions?
YES, any labs or prescriptions will be electronically sent to a lab or pharmacy of your choice.
How can I schedule myself or a family member for a telehealth appointment?

Dental Care
La Casa Family Dentistry is following the directives from the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to limit exposure to COVID-19. We have limited our dental services to patients will be seen only for urgent and emergency dental needs.
When we are advised to resume normal dental operations, we will look forward to serving you again. Our dental staff is working diligently to reschedule patients for their routine appointments as things change quickly. If you are scheduled for an emergency dental issue, we will contact you before your appointment to discuss health history, your current health status and confirm your appointment. We encourage you to call us right away if you have a dental emergency or need immediate care.
WHAT IF I THINK I HAVE COVID-19?
If you suspect you have COVID-19, please call your medical provider or La Casa location nearest you to determine if you will need to be tested.
