We want to assure you that our priority remains the safety and well-being of people - our people, and the community. In line with this commitment, we're continuing to implement a number of standard and COVID-19 specific measures to help minimise any risk of exposure within the practice.
These include:
• Our team members staying home if they have been in contact with a confirmed or suspected case of COVID-19 or are feeling unwell;
• Standard infection control procedures to reduce the spread of any infection;
• The use of personal protective equipment (PPE) for all treatments such as standard level 2 surgical masks, protective eyewear, gloves and appropriate protective outerwear;
• Strengthened cleaning procedures, including actively promoting the regular use of antibacterial hand sanitiser and surface wipes;
• Stringent personal hygiene measures for our people;
• Requesting patients reschedule their appointment if they have been in contact with someone confirmed or suspected to have COVID-19, have travelled in the last 14 days, or are or have recently been unwell, including experiencing any flu-like symptoms;
• Touch free temperature checks for our patients; and
• Scheduling and managing patients to limit the time they will spend in a common area and unnecessary contact with others.
