We remain open, remain smiling and remain safety conscious

October 2021 update

We are classified as a HealthCare setting under NHS England and the advice from NHS England and our professional bodies is that we remain in the amber phase of the pandemic (which we have been in since June 2020) and we are to continue with our Covid19 infection control and PPE measures.

At C&H we have implemented all the following to make your visit as safe as possible and to protect our staff.

• We wear scrubs, aprons, masks and visors and gloves when required.
• We take temperatures for all patients attending appointments.
• We have hand sanitizer and hand washing facilities. 
• We only see patients by appointment only - this includes choosing new spectacles, and the collection of lenses and spectacles. 
• Before your appointment, we email a checklist of Covid symptoms to ensure all visitors to the practice do not have any signs or symptoms of Covid19
• Please do not come to the practice if you have been advised to isolate
• We are limiting the number of people in the practice and we invite patients in when safe to do so. 
• If you are in a vulnerable group and have been shielded, we can offer an appointment time where there are even fewer people in the practice. 
• All equipment is sanitised after use. 
• We are closing between 1-2 daily for lunch and for cleaning. 

​If you require any further details about our infection control policy regarding Covid19 please call and speak to a member of staff. 

The safety of our staff and patients is our top priority.
