Newsletter: February 2024
Dear Patients,
The year has started incredibly quickly. It feels like only a moment since we were writing our January newsletter, yet there is already an enormous amount to include.
Awards, Registrations and New Services
In January, we heard that our application to register with the Care Quality Commission was successful. This allows us to offer a broader range of blood tests at the clinic. The CQC ensures providers of health and social care services in England do so in a safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led manner.
Our strengthened focus on clinical governance has helped us obtain the Royal College of Chiropractors’ Clinical Management Quality Mark. This accreditation is held by only a handful of Chiropractic practices in the UK. Sam was delighted to collect the award at the RCC’s Annual General Meeting on 31st January.
We’ve seen an increased number of patients needing more frequent dressing changes than their primary healthcare provider is able to offer. We are expanding our services to include Wound Care to respond to this demand.
Our new services are available from 8th February.
Team News
Our new Physiotherapist, Sharon, will be joining the team shortly to replace Karlo. Her expected start date is 26th February. With over 20 years of experience in both children and adults, her expertise will be a great addition to the team.
Lexie joined the admin team earlier in January, but we continue to hunt for the right candidate for our Admin/Marketing position. If you are interested, or know someone who is, please let us know!
Physiotherapy Students
Ben and Lewys have been on placement with us as part of the third year of their degree at the University of the West of England. Under supervision of their lecturers, they have been working with some of our patients to help them reach their goals.
We aim to support the future of our industry by offering placement opportunities to university and school students. Contact us to find out more.
