Face mask requirements eased

In line with the easing of COVID-19 restrictions in the ACT, mask-wearing will be optional and at your discretion at SportsCare clinics from 10 October 2022, except for at the Bruce Clinic.

Bruce Clinic clients will continue to be subject to mask-wearing requirements when they are entering and leaving the Ochre Medical Centre due to our colocation with other healthcare providers. You may however remove your mask, at your discretion, whenever you are inside a SportsCare treatment room at the Bruce Clinic. Please consult with your clinician if you are unsure.

Clients are encouraged to ask their clinician to wear a face mask during their appointment if they wish for them to do so. Your clinician may also request you wear a mask while in their treatment room.

We will continue to maintain our hygiene and other COVID-safe measures across all clinic locations.

What we are doing in the clinics to help keep our community safe

  1. All eligible staff across all our clinics are vaccinated.
  2. Screening all clients prior to booking appointments.
  3. Wearing face masks during appointments at the client’s request.
  4. Disinfecting any contact surfaces or equipment between appointments.
  5. Using an air purifier at each clinic as another measure against the virus.
  6. Some group classes are online, while there are 30-minute one-on-one sessions for those who need them. Please contact your clinic for group class updates.
  7. Telehealth consultation options for high-risk patients, those in quarantine or isolation, and those who prefer to stay home.
  8. Social distancing provisions in our waiting rooms where possible.
