COVID-19 UPDATE 27/7/20: Lockdown 2.0 and masks

Written By Jasmine Kouch

Hi!

It has been a whirlwind three months since I last wrote a blog regarding the COVID-19 situation.

Unfortunately, things in Melbourne and Mitchell Shire have since declined and we have ascended back into stage 3 restrictions. This means that we can only leave our homes for essential reasons:

  • Shopping for food and supplies

  • Care and caregiving

  • Exercise and outdoor recreation

  • Study and work – if you can’t do it from home

You can find all the information regarding the Victorian Government’s recommendations via this link here.

With the changes in the state, we have to be more cautious to ensure that you, our clinic and our wider community are safe. We are still accepting face-to-face consultations, however, there are a few criteria that I implore you to read and acknowledge before booking an appointment:

Please ensure that you do not attend the clinic if:

  • Have travelled overseas in the last 2 months;

  • You are currently awaiting results for the COVID-19 test;

  • Have been tested positive, or have been in contact with another person who has been tested positive with COVID-19;

  • Are not feeling 100% well and have reported respiratory symptoms (temperature, cough, colds);

  • Are not happy to comply with all the following protocols in place to ensure that you, our clinic and the wider community are protected.

We have a few protocols in place to ensure everyone’s safety:

  • Fill out the ‘Health and Wellness Screening Form’ sent to your email on each appointment;

  • Wait in your car for a text message to let you know when Jasmine the Podiatrist is ready for you;

  • Please wear a mask into the clinic and use the hand sanitiser provided upon entering;

  • Please notify us in advance if there are extra people attending the appointment with you.

We highlight more about what we do in our clinic to protect you in our previous blog post here.

Our team wishes everyone the absolute best and understands that this time can be scary. We will do our absolute best to be flexible with our appointments. We hope that you and your family stays safe and healthy during this time and we will be here if you ever need anything. Feel free to give us a call on 0499 999 828 or email us at reception@2rightfeet.com.au.
