To all my patients,

At present there is a great sense of anxiety and uncertainty in the community and as such, I am contacting you to alleviate any concerns that you may have regarding the COVID-19 virus and your physiotherapy treatment.

Following advice from the Victorian Health Department we will continue with ongoing best practice, taking all possible measures to ensure we minimise any chances of transmitting the virus in our clinic.

We are a hands-on clinic and are taking all the necessary steps to remain so, including remaining super vigilant with our hand washing. As a healthcare practice we are already subject to stringent hygiene measures. These measures have been further intensified and due to this you will most likely smell disinfectant throughout the clinic which is being used regularly during the day. My staff is well trained and have always executed correct medical hygiene procedures.

All patients should be mindful of any cold and flu symptoms and to postpone treatment if any illness should be present.

We have provided hand sanitiser at our front desk. Please make sure to make use of this upon arrival and on departure of the clinic.

It is our priority to keep you safe and well during this time and I look forward to seeing you all soon.

As always, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind regards

Dario Cusinato
APAM PHYSIOTHERAPIST
