CREATING A COVID-SAFE STONE PHYSIO

 

At Stone Physio we have missed being able to offer you the support and care that we know you value, and we are very pleased to be able to re-open our doors from Tuesday 26th May, with additional measures in place to ensure your health and well-being.

We are now able to resume some “face to face” physiotherapy treatment at Stone Physiotherapy Clinic. We are working within the legal, regulatory and professional framework that guides the safe management of patients, the safety of the wider public and everyone who works in the practice. We have a responsibility to provide a duty of care to our patients and comply with HCPC standards. Please see below the details of our re-opening.

If you would like to discuss anything related to Physiotherapy and how we can help you please call us on 01785 819414 or email stonephysio@btconnect.com or contact us via our Facebook page.

 
 
 

Booking An Appointment

  • Prior to booking we will speak to you to identify which path of care is most appropriate for you.

  • Following the latest guidance, wherever possible, we will continue to offer virtual appointments as a preferred alternative to face to face.

  • Should it be agreed face to face care is the preferred route, we will ensure that you understand:

    • The potential nature of close patient contact during our services

    • The level of PPE that a clinician will be required to wear

    • The infection prevention and control measures that must be taken 

  • Given the guidance on shielding, those classified as ‘clinically extremely vulnerable’ will be discouraged from face to face appointments during the period of shielding. 

COVID Secure 

  • We have put in place enhanced cleaning measures; the treatment rooms and equipment will be cleaned thoroughly in between every patient, and additional time has been scheduled to allow for this. 

  • Our Physios will be wearing appropriate PPE in line with the latest guidance. 

Clinic Capacity 

  • We are keeping to a minimum the number of people in the clinic at one time and appointments are spread out to avoid crossover of clients

  • We would request that if at all possible, you do not bring anyone with you to your appointment.

  • Whilst in the clinic, please observe social distancing, by keeping at least 2m from anyone (unless receiving clinical treatment). 

Our services

  • We have carried out a risk assessment on all the services that we offer and we are confident that we can continue to provide these safely. We will be offering selected, essential services initially and will review what we offer on an ongoing basis subject to Government recommendations.  

Thank you for your understanding.
