CORONA VIRUS UPDATE
What we are doing to keep you safe
​
​
We are pleased to say that the podiatry clinic continues to run,
with appointments available.
​
The welfare of our patients is a priority to us and we are ensuring that we have the appropriate measures in place for your safety and ours.
​
Health Protection Scotland and the Royal College of Podiatry have announced the withdrawal of the use of face masks in a healthcare setting from 23rd May 2023
Patients may still choose to wear a face mask; it is now optional and up to the individual to decide to do so.
You may notice our podiatrists are still wearing their face masks from personal choice.
We would still request visitors use hand sanitiser or wash their hands
before entering the clinic.
For your safety and that of our clinicians please follow these guidelines. Thank you.

As regulated healthcare professionals registered with the Royal College of Podiatry and the Health and Care Professions Council we always adhere to strict guidelines for cleanliness in our clinic. Before and after every patient our floors are swept, surfaces cleaned, hands washed and instruments are sterilised after each use.
​
Please read the following information:
​
Are you at risk?
-
Living with COPD, Lung Disease, Cancer, Diabetes; Over 70 and/or in general poor health

​
Stay at home if you have corona virus symptoms!
Ask yourself these questions…
-
Is my sense of smell and/or taste affected?
-
Do I have a high temperature – this means you feel hot to touch on your chest or back (you do not need to measure your temperature)
-
Do I have a new, continuous cough – this means coughing a lot for more than an hour, or 3 or more coughing episodes in 24 hours (if you usually have a cough, it may be worse than usual)
