COVID-19

At Wimbledon Chiropractic & Sports Injury Clinic we are very much aware and understand the concern about Covid-19.

Whilst the situation is ever-changing, the Wimbledon Clinic is monitoring the development daily and is actively taking guidance from the NHS, government business guidance and expert advice by the Chief Medical Officer, Public Health England.

We wanted to let you know that as a business we are open and operating a ‘business as usual’ approach. We want to make sure we can fulfil the needs of our clients during these times.

As a medical practice generally managing bacterial and viral infections on a daily basis, our cleaning and hygiene standards are in line with current General Chiropractic Council, Health Care Profession Council and NHS guidelines. We want to tell you about some of the steps we take on a daily basis at each of our clinical sites:

In each of our clinical locations, we pay particular attention to the surfaces that customers and colleagues touch most regularly.

 
WE USE CHLORHEXIDINE (HIBI SCRUB) HAND WASH BEFORE AND AFTER EACH CLIENTS CONSULTATION.
WE ENCOURAGE CLIENTS TO USE CHLORHEXIDINE HIBI SCRUB HANDWASHING OR ALCOHOL GEL WHICH IS AVAILABLE AT EACH CLINICAL SITE.
ANTIBACTERIAL WIPES ARE USED BEFORE AND AFTER EACH CONSULTATION TO WIPE THE PATIENT COUCH, CHAIRS AND ANY EQUIPMENT USED.
WE ARE ALSO BEING EXTRA CAUTIOUS IN TERMS OF ANY COLLEAGUE SIGNS OF ILLNESS, ISOLATING WHERE NECESSARY AND GOING OVER AND ABOVE THE ADVICE FROM GOVERNMENT AND THE WHO. WE ARE CHECKING THE FOLLOWING NHS 111 COVID-19 ONLINE INFORMATION PAGE DAILY: HTTPS://111.NHS.UK/COVID-19
Finally, we’re in constant contact with all relevant authorities to make sure that we continue to do everything we can.

In return, we ask that you please do call to reschedule your appointment if you feel unwell, as well as:

 

  • KEEP YOUR HANDS CLEAN, WASH REGULARLY AND THOROUGHLY, FOR AT LEAST 20 SECONDS WITH SOAP AND WATER.

  • ALWAYS WEAR ONE OF OUR MEDICAL GRADE MASKS AND USE THEM TO CATCH ALL COUGHS AND SNEEZES AND THEN BIN AFTER USE (NEW MASKS CAN BE PROVIDE IF NEEDED)

  •  THEN WASH YOUR HANDS WITH SOAP AND WATER OR USE A SANITISER.
