How we are keeping you safe

 

Face coverings: We strongly recommend that all patients wear a face mask or face covering when arriving for their appointment, unless you are exempt*. At our clinics which are based within NHS GP surgeries, health centres and hospitals, you may find that wearing a face mask is a condition of entry. *For the latest guidance for face covering exemptions please click here. Our clinicians will continue to wear a mask in their clinics but if you would feel comfortable for it to be removed, this can be agreed during your appointment.

Hand washing: Staff to regularly wash hands with soap and water for 20 seconds or use alcohol-based hand rub. Patients will also be asked to perform hand sanitising when entering the premises.

Rigorous cleaning: Clinicians are to perform a rigorous cleaning routine of furniture, equipment and touch surfaces after every appointment.

Professional PPE: Staff performing earwax removal and aural care will be wearing personal protective equipment (PPE) and the level of equipment will vary depending on the treatment being carried out.

Social distancing: This will be exercised where possible and where it is not possible PPE will be worn.
