As the current COVID-19 outbreak in South Australia evolves and the SA government releases information about how they are handling it, we can provide you with the following statement regarding your clinical practices.
South Australia Health has provided updated information that confirms that all therapists must wear a mask while treating clients. It is also recommended, but not mandatory for clients to wear a mask during the consultation.

Similarly, it is recommended that the other clinic staff (reception staff etc) also wear a mask.

Because gyms are closed now, if your clinic is located in a gym you are required to close or move your services to a new location temporarily. The current expected timeline is a period of two weeks.

All members should complete a COVIDSafe Plan immediately and have this in place - https://www.covid-19.sa.gov.au/business-and-work/create-a-covid-safe-plan
