Before visiting our premises please read the important information to ensure that you can stay safe and help others too during your visit.

 

COVID-19 – How to stay safe at Clarity Wellbeing Clinics.

 

What we are doing:

​

  • We will consult with you prior to offering an appointment. This will assess your suitability for face to face appointments, and any risk factors associated with seeing you in person.  This also looks at symptoms and exposure to others with Covid19.

  • We will ask for written consent to confirm you wish to meet with us.

  • We will discuss the measures we have put in place to help minimise the risk of transmission.

  • We will check your temperature on arrival. If you temperature is above 38°c, we will not permit entry to the clinic and advise you to return home and speak with the NHS

  • Face masks must be worn at all times during your visit to the clinic, unless you have written proof, demonstrating exemption. This includes during therapy session(s).

  • We will not provide drinks for the foreseeable future. Tap water may be provided in a plastic disposable cup, and you must take this cup with you and dispose of it. 

  • Our toilet facilities are out of action 

  • We are operating a “no-touch” environment. This includes with payments & contracting. 

  • We are staggering our appointments, allowing 10-15 minute gaps between our clients. This allows us time to ensure the room is cleaned down for your arrival.

  • We are permitting a maximum of 3 clinicians in our clinics, at all times. 

  • Where possible, attend your appointment on your own. If you have a carer or parent, we will endeavour to allow them access. However, there is a maximum of 2 people permitted in our waiting room at any time.

  • Please do NOT arrive any earlier than your agreed appointment time. If you arrive earlier, we will advise you to wait in your car.

  • If you are a new client, we will email a contract for you to sign before your first appointment. This is to minimise the chance of transmission. 

  • We are removing non essential ornaments, cushions and other non essential decorative items, to help minimise transmission.

  • During sessions we are staying a minimum of the recommend 2 metres distance apart

  • Hand sanitiser is available as soon as you enter the premises and in our rooms. Please use these.

  • Our clinics are incorporating additional deep cleaning and disinfection procedures. This includes cleaning down door handles, sofas, chairs and surfaces.

  • Please adhere to the yellow tape found throughout the clinic, demonstrating the 2 meter distance between you, the therapist and other clients at all times.

  • Our clinicians will change their masks between sessions.

  • We are following and continually update our procedures to comply with government guidelines given regarding COVID-19

  • We are a responsible organisation and have taken positive action to reduce the risk of spreading germs in our clinics

  • Please do not eat or consume anything purchased outside, in our clinics.

  • Our clinicians are undertaking additional training and complying with our new policies and procedures.
