We have undertaken further training to ensure that our processes are meeting or exceeding the sanitation and sterilization standards of care. Still, we will also be strengthening our infection control procedures even more during this time when there is a global concern about infections. You can visit our practice with confidence, knowing we are taking additional measures to provide for the safety of our patients and our team:
High infection control standards require the rooms for treatment and instruments to be thoroughly sterilized or disinfected between each patient. Preemptive patient screening: appointment rebooking for any patient who is not feeling well and has symptoms of a disease before being treated in the office.
Continued adherence to protocols for a standard sterile healthcare environment, including hand hygiene; the use of personal protective equipment like gloves, masks, and eyewear – respiratory hygiene n / cough etiquette – sharps safety– safe injection practices (where applicable)-sterilized instruments and devices-and clean disinfected environmental surfaces areas. Hand sanitization stations in the waiting rooms and frequent cleaning of high-touch common areas.
