Precautions in the event of outbreak of an infectious disease
We would like to ensure that we are prepared to implement the necessary steps required to control an outbreak of an infectious disease that represents a risk to patients, employees and others associated with our clinics.
It is therefore absolutely essential that if you have fever AND respiratory symptoms or have been in contact in the last two weeks with a contagious disease you must NOT come to the centre for your appointment but call your health professional from home.
Similarly if you have fever AND respiratory symptoms or have been in contact in the last two weeks with a contagious disease you must NOT enter the centre to visit a patient.
