 ​C. Cleaning and Disinfection Principles

·       We are strictly following guidelines by the Australian Government Department of Health.

·       After every patient visit, all parts of the table that are touched by the patient will be sanitised.

·       We will be leaving consulting room doors slightly open to minimise contamination of door handles

·       Chiropractors and Massage Therapists will be sanitising their hands before every patient visit.

·       sanitization products will be alcohol based as advised by Australian Government Department of Health, as this has anti-viral properties.

·       prior to both morning and afternoon shifts, and periodically throughout the day, the following will be sanitised:

• door handles
• chair arm rests
• front desk counter top
• washrooms/toilets
• water dispenser 
• anything else that is frequently touched

·       alcohol based hand sanitiser will be made available for patient use.

·       If we have been made aware after the fact of a patient who has come to our office while being positive for COVID-19 virus, we will hire a professional cleaning company to do a 'Terminal Clean' as described by the Australian Government Health Department document entitled: "Environmental cleaning and disinfection principles for COVID-19"
