Here’s our latest update:
I am sure at least some of you have heard that Governor Brown is allowing for clinics to reopen for non-emergency procedures – with caveats. This includes reduced patient load to allow for requisite safety measures to be undertaken, including avoiding waiting with other people in waiting areas, disinfecting of the clinic and treatment rooms as well as pre-visit screening. While in the clinic all patients and practitioners will be required to wear masks. Patients are allowed to wear cloth masks that they must bring with them.
SO, we can finally restart scheduling patients. (Yippee!) Since we need time between patients to disinfect the treatment room, the schedule will be somewhat cumbersome at first. Also, we haven’t gotten to the point yet where we can restart the community acupuncture. We’re working on that and will keep you posted. For everyone’s safety, we need to have procedures in place.
It is a relief that we are at this stage, but I also know we need to be cautious. I believe, though, that it’s important to have access to care.
In good health and wellbeing,
Mia
