To our valued customers
Firstly we would like to thank all our clients for their continued patience and understanding during these uncertain times.
With the easing of COVID 19 restrictions, we would like to advise of updates to our services. These come with further advice from the Health Department of WA, the Veterinary Surgeons Board, the World Health Organisation, Australian Veterinary Association and following the appropriate recommendations.
As of the 21st May 2020, we will start to allow clients into the clinic; however, this will come with the following restrictions:
- We are limited to 9 clients in the reception area, therefore we still ask that you call us when you arrive at the clinic and receive further directions from reception.
- We have installed perspex screens on the front desk for the protection of both staff & clients.
- We have placed tape on the floors for guidance as to where to stand, with marked areas around each chair to enable social distancing at all times.
- We ask that only 1 client be present per consult room (one client per patient) – with the exception of euthanasia
- We are disinfecting all areas that people may come into contact with throughout the day. This includes doors, door handles, phones, floors, hard surfaces and seating.
- We are using a hospital grade disinfectant to clean the entire hospital and have increased the frequency of cleaning.
- Consult rooms will be cleaned between patients and staff will wash hands after all interactions with clients and patients.
- We have hand washing facilities as well as hand sanitizer and request everyone entering the building sanitise their hands.
- We have a no handshake policy to avoid unnecessary contact.
- We have spaced out our reception seating to help clients keep an appropriate distance from each other.
- We are happy for clients to remain outside or in their vehicles to consults as we are currently, if you so wish.
