​

• Please try to arrive on time this will help manage social distancing.
• Please wear a mask and keep 2m distance in the waiting room.
• If you are having a healthcare related treatment you do not require a "My Vaccine Passport", for non healthcare related services government regulations may apply. If you are not sure if you are receiving a healthcare service please contact our staff before your appointment.
• Please keep touching any objects to a minimum.
• Please sanitize before using facilities or having a refreshment, hand sanitizer are available throughout the clinic. 
• Please use a contactless payment method if possible.
• If you do not have an appointment please use your contact tracing app to scan in. If you do not have your phone inform the staff so they can record your visit. 
• If you feel unwell, have been in contact with someone who is unwell or waiting on a test result, please reschedule your appointment.

We know its not nice to have these measures put in place but if we all play our part we can get through this. Take care and be safe!

BLOSSOM SAFETY PROTOCOLS AIM TO PROTECT YOU AND STAFF ABOVE AND BEYOND GOVERNMENT SET PPE & HYGIENE PRACTICES:​
​

• Contact tracing (for appointment holders). Contact tracing signs are conveniently placed around the clinic. Scanning in for appointments is not mandatory since they are logged in our system. However, using the contact tracing app is the quickest way to get important information about places of interest should an incident occur, so scanning in is always good practice.
• Contact tracing (general). Visitors without appointments are required to scan in using the contact tracing app. Please do not feel offended if staff asks if you have scanned in, it is for everyone’s safety.
• My Vaccine Passes. All clients receiving a healthcare related service from Blossom Clinic are not required to show 'My Vaccine Pass', for non health care related service government regulations may apply. If you are uncertain if your treatment is a healthcare service please contact our team.
• Sanitizing. There are hand sanitizers strategically placed around the clinic, sanitizing before the use of any facilities is paramount.
• Screening protocol. During the booking process or upon arrival clients will be asked a few quick screening questions. Again, please don’t feel offended as we are doing this to keep everyone safe.
• Mask mandate. Due to airborne & droplet transmission, masks are another very important part of PPE. Masks are required in the waiting area as it is an indoor public place. Our staff is also required to wear mask when in close interaction with patients.
• Social distancing. Under the new requirements we have spaced out the seating areas for all seats to be 2m apart.
• Hygiene. Washing hands is probably the best tool to prevent exposure, our staff follows strict washing procedures as laid out by the MOH.
• Cleaning standards. All direct contact areas in the treatment rooms are wiped clean with disinfectant medi-wipes after every patient, all other general contact areas are wiped down at least twice daily.

We care we created this internal protocol to keep you and staff safe. We are truly sorry if this should cause any inconveniences! 

LEVEL 2

The New Zealand Government and the Ministry of Health have created levels of action and guidelines in response to the Covid 19 virus.  These levels mandate changes to social and work interactions, to prevent and slow the rates of transmission.

Following the health and safety recommendations will ensure the health of both clients and staff. The recommendations are constantly changing, so we are keeping an eye on the MOH.
