PROM COUNTRY OSTEO

Covid Update - 27/09/21 onwards.

We are now open for "essential care". You will need to meet at least one of the criteria:

​

• osteo treatment will help to decrease the frequency of treatment needed overall, reduce the need for prescription medication, reduce your recovery time or prevent the need for a specialist review

• osteo treatment has been delayed as a result of previous restrictions & treatment will help prevent a worsening of your functional independence & possible poor health outcomes

• your osteo sessions are part of a plan of care alongside a medical practitioner

• your osteo sessions are aimed at avoiding or delaying surgery

• your osteo sessions are soon after having surgery & are aimed at preventing complications or helping with recovery

​

Please let us know if you have recently travelled to or through Melbourne or any suburbs/towns with known Covid cases as our receptionists need to follow a screening process.

​

Please don't attend our clinic:

• if you or anyone you live with have any Covid symptoms - isolate & get tested first.​

• if you have had contact with a known covid case or exposure site get advice here first.

Masks are still mandatory.

​

Lastly, we require that the QR code is scanned upon arrival.

​

Cheers,

​

PCO team.
