Physical distancing in the office

Protective barriers for our front staff

Use of masks, gloves, gowns, and eye protection by physiotherapists as needed when providing direct patient care
-
continuing to offer telehealth appointments for those who cannot come in to the clinic, or prefer to stay home

using the BC self-assessment tool to screen all patient and ourselves to ensure everyone entering the clinic (staff and patients) are not ill
