Coronavirus (COVID-19) Infection Prevention & Control Policy

 

for Feet First Foot Care

Dear Clients.

 

All of us have been affected by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. We hope you have not been too severely affected and that you and your families are keeping safe.

 

We have missed being able to offer you the treatments that we know you look forward to, and we are looking forward to seeing you again as soon as possible.

 

Our priority is to keep you as safe as possible, and prior to re-opening the clinic we have implemented several changes which we would like to make you aware of. During the time the clinic has been shut.  We have staff who have qualified on Coronavirus (COVID-19) Infection Prevention and Control courses.  We have made a number of changes in the way that we operate, that you will notice when you next visit.

 

Your Appointment

 

If any of our staff feel ill or have symptoms of C0VlD-19, they will self-isolate immediately and will not come into the clinic. This may mean that we have to cancel your appointment at short notice. We appreciate that this may be inconvenient, but it is done entirely for your own safety.   We will re-schedule your visit for as soon as possible.

 

If you or any of the people you live with feel ill or display any symptoms of C0VlD-19 – please advise us as soon as possible and DO NOT COME TO THE CLINIC FOR YOUR APPOINTMENT.

 

Visiting the Clinic

 

For your safety and to maintain social distancing, we ask that you attend your appointments as close to the appointment time as possible (no earlier than 5 minutes before your appointment time.   Please do not turn up earlier for appointments.

 

We have increased the frequency of cleaning in the clinic including making sure that common surfaces, door handles etc. are wiped clean using appropriate sanitising products between each client as necessary.

 

You will find that you are asked to wait either in an outside area or within the practice reception area.  All areas are marked with Social Distancing guide markings.  Please ensure that you comply with the guidance by not being closer than the markings allow; to other people visiting the practice.


Please ensure that you wear a doube layered face covering (mask/scarf etc.) when you visit the practice and during your treatment.


Carers:  You may be accompanied by a carer if that is an absolute necessity during your visit.  Carers must also wear a face covering, use the hand gel and adhere to the Social Distancing guidelines.

 

You will have access to a gel hand cleaner as you enter the practice area.  Please use the product to sanitise your hands.

 

 

Please don’t be surprised or upset by our staff wearing personal protective equipment (PPE) during your visit and during your treatment. This may include visors, safety glasses, face masks, aprons, and gloves.

 

We can assure you that every precaution is taken by our staff in order to minimise any risk to you during your visit.

 

Our Treatments and Our Safety Measures


You will notice that there is new equipment in use in the clinics and the reception area.  This is to ensure we maintain a clean air environment and to ensure your comfort.

 

We have carried out a risk assessment on all treatments and we are confident that we can continue to provide these safely.  

 

During your treatment

 

Our staff understand the importance of hand hygiene and we ensure that we wash our hands in according with NHS recommendations before the start of your treatment.

 

We will try to make your treatment as safe, comfortable, and enjoyable as possible. If you have any concerns about your treatments, please let us know

 

After the treatment

 

In order to avoid handling of cash, we would prefer if you could pay for your treatment by contactless card or pin card.

 

All of these procedures have been implemented for your safety and that of our staff.  We will continue to take advice from the our professional body (the Society of Chiropodists and Podiatrists) the Government and the NHS regarding safe practice.


There is a one way system in operation through the practice area.  After your treatment you will be directed to the counter for payment and to book your next appointment.  You will leave through the fire door exit

 

We thank you for your understanding that all the changes you find have been put in place in order that you have a safe and risk free treatment at Feet First.

 

Your foot care team at Feet First.
