Response to some clients concerns:
As it's important to keep an open line of communication, I have answers to questions that clients have texted or emailed me. Updates on how we're handling the COVID-19 pademic at the clinic. Our focus remains on the health and safety of all our clients and therapists during this time. Please read the following so we are all in alignment.
An important note on COVID-19:
COVID-19 is spread through respiratory droplets, it cannot be transmitted through sweat. For the past 11 years we have been using and will continue to use hospital grade disinfectant to maintain safe practices, we will continue to provide a safe environment. In addition, 8 years ago we started using gloves during our treatments and will continue to protect and provide quality service.
Health Precautions to take:
• Wash and disinfect your hands often
• Refrain from touching your face (mouth, nose, eyes)
• If a client feels sick or ill even runny nose we advise them to stay home
What Paul Lewis Services(clinic) www.paullewis.ca is looking like:
The clinic will stay open at the current time. We will continue to schedule clients with at least 15 to 30 minute time frame between clients. This gives us up to a 30 minute window to clean and disinfect rooms and surfaces.
If we are forced to close the clinic, due to mandated closures, we will comply with Canadian Law and Public Health Authorities, and do the right thing for our clients.
At this time we continue to stay open and provide high quality service.
