Hi Everyone,
As the governments and community prepares for preventing the spread of COVID-19 we would like to advise you how we are maintaining a healthy and safe environment for everyone. We have added other protocols to our usual standard protocols of sanitising and washing of hands;
What We’re Doing:
- We sanitise our hands before and after treating a patient.
- We are wearing gloves and mask during treatment.
- We are cleaning with disinfectant all face-cushions, benchtops, door handles and chairs prior to and after each patient has attended.
- Providing hand sanitizer in each room.
- We have disinfectant wipes in each room for your use .
- All patients have been advised with symptoms such as fever, cold , cough, sore throat to call for a phone consultation or reschedule their appointment rather than come into clinic.
- We are burning essential oils and spraying essential oils in the room that are antiviral.
- Our receptionist is screening all patients that call regarding their symptoms and advise those with a cold or been overseas to stay at home or consult a doctor.
What You Can Do:
- According to Australian government guidelines, please self quarantine for 14 days if you have travelled overseas
- Please also refrain from coming to clinic for 14 days if you have been in contact with a friend, family member or colleague who has been traveling to those affected areas or been in contact with someone who is showing symptoms.
- Thoroughly scrub/wash your hands, before clinic, and feel free to use our hand sanitisers in clinic before you enter the rooms – especially after going to the bathroom. As much as possible, avoid touching your mouth, nose, and eyes. If you find yourself sneezing or coughing, please do it into a tissue or your elbow. Please don’t forget to wash your hands immediately after.
- If you feel unwell and/or following travel to the affected countries, or have had contact with an individual with coronavirus, please see a health professional immediately. Government guidelines also suggest that you self-isolate and closely monitor your health for 14 days.
- Please re schedule if you have a cold or flu and you may call Houng for a phone consultation and she can send you out herbs to assist you to recover.
