Dear Patient,

The novel coronavirus COVID-19 is top of mind. On behalf of Healthx Physical Therapy, I want to share with you our health and safety action plan to help protect all patients and practitioners in both Langley and Whistler. While no cases have been reported in either of our locations, our company is committed to a rigorous and proactive approach. We want to do everything we can to maintain a healthy and responsible environment for all. If you have any questions or suggestions regarding our action plan, please contact our office at physio@healthx.ca

  1. Health and Safety Priority — Each of our team members are prepared to ensure the best standard of cleanliness and hygiene is practiced in the clinic setting.
  2. Clinic Community Safety Information — Community safety communications plan posted in the clinic outlining handwashing techniques, prevention and best practices.
  3. Sanitization Plan — Increased sanitization of all high-traffic area touchpoints in the clinic following each patient contact in addition to cleaning of the clinical treatment areas. Ongoing daytime cleaning and nightly cleaning.
  4. Clinical Area — All hard and soft surfaces inside the clinic are wiped down each time a person uses it.
  5. Sanitizer Locations — Additional hand sanitizer dispensers are provided for patients and staff to sanitize hands throughout the day.
