We have plans and strategies in place to ensure that our clinic is COVID safe and minimises the risk of any disease transmission.
Maintaining Physical Distancing
The goal of physical distancing is to ensure that patients, visitors, doctors and all the staff in the practice are all safe. All patients who phone for an appointment or present to the clinic are asked about clinical and epidemiological evidence of COVID-19 including acute respiratory symptoms, fever, recent overseas travel or contact with a suspected/confirmed COVID-19 case.
Use of Personal Protective Equipment
Appropriate Personal Protective Equipment is used as and when required
for example:
• surgical masks
• face shields, goggles or safety glasses
• gloves
