Practice Information

Please cancel if you exhibit the symptoms of a high temperature, new or continuous cough, new loss of taste or small or if you think you might have been exposed.

There is a Pre-Screening Form on your reminder email that needs to be completed by all patients visiting the clinic.

• This needs to be done 24 hours prior to your appointment.
• It is to check that you have not had any symptoms of Covid 19 or been in contact with anyone who has in the proceeding 14 days.
• There is a question about whether you are in the shielded or vulnerable patient groups (see below)
• A question about consent (see below)
• If you are not able to fill this in online we will call you the day before your appointment

While we are taking every precaution to limit your exposure to coronavirus, we cannot guarantee that there is no risk as a result of attending our clinic for treatment.

We will request and record your consent to accepting the risk in the online form attached to your reminder email and that will be added to your notes. If you do not receive reminder emails we will call you 24 hours before your appointment.

The government has continued social distancing but as this is not possible in the clinic setting if you feel the condition for which you are consulting us is non-essential or you do not wish to accept the risk please re-arrange your appointment or contact us to find out more about what we are doing to ensure the clinic is safe.  (the protocol document runs to very many pages!!)

Shielded patients received a letter on or around the 23rd March telling them to self isolate.  We are currently seeing patients in all groups face to face.  However we are  able to offer you a remote teleheath consultation by phone or video if you would prefer.

If you have any concerns the best way forward is to book a free 10 minute consultation for more information or triage, Alternatively please email us for more information.  hello@osteopathyforall.co.uk

Remote telehealth consultations are available to anyone.

• At your appointment time please wait in the car park until we indicate that the previous patient has left.
