As coronavirus restrictions are easing, and we are returning to ‘normal life’, it is important that we remember to keep important medical appointments, and move back into the community safely. You can book an appointment with Dr Atkinson if you have put it off due to coronavirus. Keep reading to find out how we are working to keep our patients safe during these times.
As long as you are feeling well and are not experiencing any cold or flu symptoms, and have not been in close contact with a confirmed case of covid-19, or have been to Victoria in the two weeks prior to your appointment, then you are able to attend the clinic. All our consultation locations have hygiene measures in place and are practicing social distancing to ensure the safety of patients and staff. These measures are in place to keep us all safe and ensure that you can receive the medical care that you need during this time.
Top tips to help keep you ‘covid-safe’ this winter:
- Maintain a 1.5m distance between others at all times
- Wash hands regularly
- Avoid touching your face
- Download the ‘COVIDSafe’ app
