Screening protocols
The clinic continues to follow the practice measures as set out by the Alberta College & Association of Chiropractors (ACAC), which includes patient screening, hand hygiene, cleaning, disinfecting and the use of PPE.

All patients requesting in-person appointments will be asked to self-screen using the questions below. Patients will be screened again when arriving for in-person appointments.
