WE’RE RE-OPENING!!!
We are so excited to let everyone know that we are reopening as of Monday May 4, 2020. Feel free to call the clinic and we’ll be happy to book your appointment! But before you do, please read below to see what will be expected of you and what kind of changes we’re making to keep you safe!
Why are we asking you to wear a face covering? Well, this is something we’re asking you to do to protect the staff and the other clinic patients with whom you may come in contact. If you happen to be an unknowing asymptomatic carrier, any of your coughs or sneezes will be kept more contained by your mouth and nose covering. What will we as staff be wearing you may wonder? We will be wearing our regulatory college sanctioned disposable face masks, and some staff may be wearing eye shields.
Have you or anyone in your household travelled outside of Manitoba in the past 14 days? Have you or anyone in your household been in a setting that has been identified as a risk for acquiring COVID-19, such as at a workplace or an event in the past 14 days? Have you or anyone in your household been in contact with someone that is confirmed to have COVID-19 in the last 14 days? Have you or anyone in your household had laboratory exposure while working directly with specimens known to contain COVID-19? Have you or anyone in your household been recommended or instructed to self isolate in the past 14 days? Do you have a new onset of any of the symptoms listed below: Fever Cough Sore Throat Shortness of breath/breathing difficulties Do you have new onset of 2 or more of any of the symptoms listed below: Runny nose Muscle aches Fatigue Loss of taste or smell Headache Hoarse voice Nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea for more than 24 hours You can find a COVID self screening tool at this link if you would like to self screen as well: https://sharedhealthmb.ca/covid19/screening-tool/ If you’ve answered yes to any of the screening questions above and you are concerned that you may require COVID testing, please call Health Links at: 204-788-8200 or 1-888-315-9257.
Anyone who has answered yes to any of the questions above. In this case, we would help you to arrange a virtual session with one of our physios.

Limiting the number of people in the clinic to a maximum of 10 at a time, including staff. Having everyone sanitize their hands immediately upon entering the clinic. Practicing social distancing (staying 6 feet apart) whenever possible. Avoiding having people wait in the wait room and removing all public magazines, books, and pamphlets. We normally clean all of our beds and bolsters, change pillowslips, and sanitize the gym between patients but don’t be surprised if you start smelling industrial strength sanitizer everywhere you go! Our therapists normally ensure they sanitize their hands between patients and before invasive procedures like acupuncture, but as described above, you can be sure it’s happening stringently just by the smell! Ensuring our own staff are screened as above and are monitoring themselves for any signs of symptoms so they STAY HOME if they are ill. We thank you for adjusting with us to this new way of keeping you healthy at the clinic. I know there will be some bumps and laughs along the way … we’ll all have fun trying to guess who is who and trying to hear each other’s muffled words behind our mouth coverings! In the end, we just want to keep you and your loved ones safe while still helping you along in your healing process. So excited to see you at the clinic! |
