By | Articles For General Public | No Comments

PHYSIOTHERAPIST

South City Physiotherapy is looking to hire a part-time or full-time physiotherapist.

You must be registered, and in good standing with the College of Physiotherapists of Ontario. Ideally with at least 3 years of orthopaedic experience. Manual therapy, acupuncture/IMS/dry needling and excellence in exercise prescription will be given preference. Other areas of interest such as treatment of vestibular or TMJ conditions, pelvic floor or visceral mobilizations would also be very desirable.

South City offers competitive compensation, mentorship with FCAMPT and Gunn IMS physiotherapists, and opportunities for professional development.

RMT

South City Physiotherapy is also looking for a part-time or full-time RMT to start anytime!  If part-time, you could work as an independent contractor.

Covid – 19 Masking & Screening Policies – Effective June 13, 2022

By | Articles For General Public | No Comments

 

MASKING

Patients and staff will still be required to wear a mask in all clinic common areas and treatment rooms.

Our staff will continue to wear masks all day to help protect you, and we ask that you comply with this policy for the short time you are in the clinic – for your safety and that of everyone else.

SCREENING

Patients and staff will continue to be screened for Covid exposure and symptoms.

All new patients will be asked to answer a short list of Covid screening questions upon arrival. On subsequent visits to the clinic, you will simply be asked if there have been any changes to your previous answers.

We will continue to ask all clients to notify our staff over the phone or by e-mail if you are experiencing any covid symptoms and need to reschedule your appointment.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation!

 

Why does South City continue to require masking and screening when provincial mandates have been lifted?

While the Ontario government has lifted provincial mask and screening mandates in most settings, Health Care facilities have been asked to implement their own policies.

South City’s patient population includes a high percentage of elderly individuals and many others who are immunocompromised. We also have many patients and several staff members who are caring for elderly, fragile parents or who have family members who are extremely vulnerable.

All our therapists must also be in close contact with patients for over 15 minutes – which raises the risk of Covid transmission.

After careful consideration of all of these factors, we have decided on the policies listed above. These policies will be reviewed every 2 weeks.

We understand how weary everyone is of screening procedures and wearing masks, but know that over the last 2 ½ years, because we’ve been so careful, South City has not had a single Covid case start at our clinic.

We have done well so far.  Please work with us to keep it that way!

Francine Doré – Clinic Director

 

South City Closed…….

By | Articles For General Public | No Comments

Due to the evolving Coronavirus pandemic, South City Physiotherapy will be temporarily closed – effective Monday March 16, 2020  8:00 p.m..

At this point we will remain closed until the Public Health Agency of Canada advises that it is safe to re-open.

We will continue to monitor developments daily, and will provide an update as soon as possible.

South City does not take the decision to withdraw services lightly, but our first priority is to help protect the health and safety of all patients and staff through “social distancing” as recommended by the Public Health Agency of Canada.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Francine Doré – Clinic Director

South City Physiotherapy would like to wish you a festive holiday season and a new year filled with good health, peace and happiness.

South City has been serving the Guelph community for 28 years. This holiday season, South City and its staff have decided to “give back” by supporting local families through the Guelph “Adopt a Family” program. We are also providing support for those in need outside our community through “Plan Canada’s” international programs.

We could not have done any of this without you, and we’d like to express our sincere appreciation for your continued confidence and loyalty.
