RETURN TO PRACTICE AT KWFC
We hope all is well with you and your family during these challenging times.
Many of our patients have been forced to wait for chiropractic care due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and we appreciate everyone’s understanding while we were closed to prevent the spread of the virus. We are committed to providing for the chiropractic needs of our patients.
We have been open through the month of June for limited days and hours and are happy to say our office has re-opened for further patient care in July. Chiropractic hours of operation will initially be offered Tuesday to Thursday. We are booking appointments primarily in the afternoon at this time to give us additional time to clean the clinic and socially distance between appointments. For now appointments cannot be booked online due to the COVID-19 screening requirements that we must follow, but we hope to resume online booking in the near future.
Please contact us and we will be happy to reschedule appointments that had to be cancelled due to the state of emergency and directives issued by the Ministry of Health, the provincial government and our regulatory bodies.
Chiropractic appointments will be triaged and prioritized based on emergency and urgent care needs.
For those of you who choose to wait a while longer before resuming care, we'll be here and ready to see you upon your return.
We are taking extensive precautionary measures to ensure the safety of our patients and staff that we have outlined below.
First, we are fully compliant with infection control procedures set by the CCO, CKO and the CMTO as well as health regulations set by the Ministry of Health.
We have also changed our appointment procedures and taken other safety measures to provide a safe clinic appointment. These include;
The safety of our patients is our top priority, and our entire clinical team is committed to ensuring your safety and comfort in receiving care from our office.
We are looking forward to reconnecting with our patients and providing for your health care needs.
If you have any questions or concerns related to your care after reviewing this information, please contact us directly.
Sincerely,
The Kingston West Family Chiropractic Team
