Following the Queensland Government’s announcement regarding the South East Queensland 3-day lockdown that comes into effect at 4:00pm this afternoon (Saturday 31st July 2021), we would like to assure our community that Eve Health services will continue, with some necessary updates to operations.
In light of another cluster of positive cases overnight and community transmission concerns:
- We cannot support partners or support people in the waiting and consultation rooms during this lockdown period. Patients are to attend their appointment alone, in order to protect our staff as essential workers and other patients in the waiting room.
- All patients attending appointments are required to wear a mask at all times.
- The Eve Health patient services team will contact you if your appointment is changing. Some in person appointments will need to be moved to telehealth appointments.
As always, please DO NOT attend our clinic and reschedule your appointment with the Eve Health reception team on: (07) 3332 1999 if you:
- have tested positive for COVID-19,
- have been in contact with a confirmed case of COVID-19,
- have been in contact with any person who has returned from international travel in the last 14 days, or
- are feeling unwell.
We have taken extra precautionary hygiene measures in the practice which may affect wait times, so we ask for your patience during this time.
When attending our waiting rooms, please ensure you:
- use the sanitiser available to clean your hands on arrival,
- use social distancing when dealing with our staff and other patients in our practice. A distance of 1.5 metres is considered optimal,
- avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth, and
- sneeze or cough into a tissue or your elbow if necessary.
Our commitment is to minimise the risk to our patients and staff.
Stay safe and thank you in advance for your cooperation.
