In keeping with the current social distancing protocols stipulated by the local health authorities due to COVID-19, this year’s staging will only serve the 120 persons who received appointments during the pre-registration phase,” the private energy company stated. “The appointment schedule, which commences 9:00 am to 4:30 pm will facilitate no more than 10 patients at a time. Safeguarding the health and well-being of the residents, our staff and partners is paramount, as such, the company will not offer the usual dental services, but only those where proper safety/social distancing procedures can be maintained.”

JEP’s corporate social responsibility team has been working closely with the public health department to ensure that all protocols are observed, the company said.

Residents can also look forward to prostate counselling, pap smears, giveaways from the National Health Fund (NHF) as well as services from Passport, Immigration and Citizenship Agency (PICA) and the Registrar General’s Department (RGD).

“We are asking all those registered to please be on time, comply with our sanitising/COVID-19 safety protocols, wear a mask and remember to walk with an ID, TRN and their insurance card, said the company.
