COVID - 19 Alert Level Three Update
As you will know by now, the Government has announced that Auckland has moved back into Covid-19 Alert Level 3.
What does this mean for Active+ Milford Physiotherapy?
Our clinic is currently closed and we will be conducting appointments via our online Teleheath service. If you have an appointment booked in the next 3 days, please stay at home and do not come to the clinic for your appointment. If you have not already heard from us, we'll be in touch to let you know the next steps.
If you would like to make a Teleheath appointment, please contact our clinic as usual on 0800 749 946.
We do not yet know how long we will remain in Alert Level 3 but we will continue to keep in touch with anyone who has an appointment booked and monitor all communciation from the government.
It is likely that when we do reopen, it will be under Level 2 conditions and we will keep you updated on what this involves.
We look forward to reopening our doors as soon as possible and please don't hesitate to get in touch with any queries.
Kia Kaha,
Ashley and the team at Active+ Milford
⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
