FitRight HQ

With community transmission of COVID inevitably on the rise, we have been working hard being the scenes at FitRight HQ to come up with our protocols - including easier access to Telehealth options, our policy on vaccinations, and clinic protocols to keep everyone as safe as possible 🥰
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here’s what we will be asking of patients:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
💜 Sign in using the Safe WA app
💜 Answer COVID screening questions on arrival
💜 Sanitise hands on arrival
💜 Wear a well fitting mask to all appointments (N95/P2/KN95 recommended)
💜 Arrive at the appointment time, not early, to minimise patient crossover.
💜 Try to attend your appointment on your own rather than with friends or family members (babies are of course welcome)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And here’s what we will commit to doing as staff:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
💜 Regularly cleaning touch points in the clinic including door handles, desk, bathroom etc
💜 Wiping down treatment beds, chairs & exercise equipment with Clinell wipes (hospital grade) between patients
💜 Maximising airflow in the clinic by leaving the doors open, having AC running, & an air filter for inside the treatment room
💜 Wearing N95 masks which provide maximum protection
💜 Social distancing where possible - including chairs being more spaced out
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Regarding vaccinations - At this stage we have double vaccination requirements for group clinical exercise classes only, other clinic appointments can continue to be accessed without having to prove vaccination status. As the situation changes and transmission increases we will still continue to accept patients who are unvaccinated, however this will be only with certain staff members & at certain times - please contact us if you have queries about this [email protected]
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Thank you for you support as we navigate this! (🤯🙈) We want our clients to feel included but safe 💜

Very exciting news… our FitRight HQ team is growing again!​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Say Hi to Veronica Thompson! 👋🏻 She started with us in the Applecross clinic yesterday and we are ecstatic to have her there!​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
💜Veronica graduated from the University of Notre Dame in 2013 & has been working as a musculoskeletal physio since then. She very quickly realised the importance & power of exercise rehab, and completed Polestar training in 2015. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
💜After this, she followed her passion for travel & worked on the ski fields of Japan, as well as in corporate London. At the end of 2020 she returned to her hometown of Perth to follow her next passion – helping & empowering women – by beginning her Masters in Pelvic Health & Continence. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Veronica enjoys treating women all throughout their life-stages; be it pelvic floor concerns, pregnancy related issues, postnatal rehab (including abdominal separation), sexual pain, return to running, musculoskeletal aches and any issues that arise around the time of menopause. She loves to help clients reach their goals and to take a very active approach to get them there. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Outside of work Veronica loves staying active herself, & will often be found running, swimming, doing yoga, walking around the river or down at the beach. She is also an avid traveller & foodie – & can never be found far away from a good cinnamon scroll!​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Veronica will be taking appointments Tuesdays 2:30- 5:30pm & Thursdays 3-7pm!​​​​​​​​

Baby cuddling volunteers needed! 💜

If you love babies and toddlers and could help us out with the following classes, we would be so appreciative (and we know their Mums will be too, so that they can exercise with their FitRight Physio safe in the knowledge that their baby is being cared for in the same room).

Ardross - Monday 9:45-10:45am (this is usually a Toddler&Me class but currently has an influx of 3-6 month olds to cuddle!!)

O’Connor Baby&Me Aqua Tuesdays 12:30-1:30pm

How to learn more or sign up as a volunteer? Email Emily [email protected]!

She will require a copy of your Working With Children Check (we can help you to apply for this), your COVID vaccine certificate, and for you to sign off that you’re up to date with Whooping Cough immunisations.

Please share!
