Covid-19

Follow us to stay up to date with changes

 

We are now open for ROUTINE care. (15/06/2020)

On following advice given by the government and our professional bodies we are open to provide care for existing and new patients, by appointment only. 

We take Coronavirus very seriously and have adapted the running’s of our clinic to balance the risk by taking measures to reduce the spread from infection and protect our patients and staff.

  • Appointments will be scheduled after a telephonic consultation to assess every patient’s needs and screen for any symptoms of Covid-19. 

  • We have made a number of changes which include requesting that every patient entering the clinic wash their hands immediately and that they attend their appointment unaccompanied where possible.

  • We ask that you consider wearing loose fitting clothing and bring in a pair of shorts, where access to the lower body is necessary.

  • We request that patient’s arrive for their appointment at their scheduled time, promptly, to prevent patient crossover in reception.  We are allowing more time between scheduled appointments to thoroughly clean down treatment and waiting room areas and further avoid patient crossover.   

  • We continue to practice a high standard of hygiene within our clinic.  Our benches, chairs, surfaces and door handles are disinfected after every patient.  Headrest paper and couch rolls are replaced after every patient.

  • Our practitioners and therapists will be wearing single use aprons and masks. As usual, hand washing is done before and after every patient, broken skin will be covered by waterproof dressings or gloves. 

  • We ask if you or a member within your household do not feel well and have a temperature, shortness of breath, a cough, loss of smell and or loss of taste that you call us to reschedule your appointment and do not attend the clinic for 7 days after symptoms have subsided for the safety of our staff and others. 

We will be monitoring the situation on a daily basis and keeping up with Government and Chiropractic Council guidance.  

We thank you for understanding and patience during this time.
