What is ellephysio’s masking policy?

The ellephysio clinic abides by the masking mandates and/or guidelines as set out by the Ministry of Health Ontario. We have masks available for use upon entry to the clinic if you wish to wear one.
It is recommended to wear a mask if you feel it is the right choice for you, based on your level of risk. Masks can be considered:
- especially if you are at higher risk of getting very sick from a respiratory virus
- in high-risk congregate settings, such as shelters and group homes
- if you live, work or spend time with someone who is at higher risk of COVID-19, such as someone who has a weak immune system or is a senior
- if you are in a crowded indoor setting with poor ventilation
- to add an extra layer of protection in any setting
If you would prefer for any of our staff who are not already wearing a mask, to put a mask on, please do not hesitate to request this. We are all sensitive and respectful of our patient’s right to feel safe and comfortable while attending your session.
