We’re happy to say the practice is fully open, and we’ve taken measures to keep everyone safe while visiting the clinic.
Here’s what to expect:
– Appointments can be made as usual, by phoning the practice on 0115 9484141. Please leave a message if you get our answerphone, and we’ll make sure to call you back.
– We’re not using the waiting room at the moment, and ask all our patients to please stay in the car until their appointment time, when you’ll then be able to come straight through to the treatment room. If you have travelled by public transport, please do come as close to your appointment time as possible. If you need to use the facilities before your appointment please do ask!
– If you do have a face-covering/mask we’d appreciate you wearing it while in the practice. Hand sanitiser is available for your use at the door on entry and exit.
– In the practice room we’re using plastic sheets and pillow covers, with disposable paper covering. We’re spacing patient appointments out so that we can help maintain social distancing, and so that we have time to thoroughly clean, disinfect the plastic coverings and surfaces and aerate the room between patients.
– Your osteopath will be wearing a plastic apron, gloves and a face-mask, and is using new PPE for every patient.
– If you may have been in contact with someone suffering from COVID-19 or a carrier of the virus, or if you think you may have symptoms of COVID-19 (especially cough, temperature and loss of sense of smell) please telephone the practice before your appointment to discuss the advisability of you attending. If you have any questions or concerns about your visit, please do discuss this with us when you make your appointment.
