Vets and Covid Alert Level 2
Companion Vets Limited - What to expect at Level 2
Hello to all our valued clients
As you will no doubt have heard – the COVID Alert Level for Hamilton has now been raised to Level 2.
Companion Vets will remain open and we will be implementing some measures to help keep everyone safe at this time including:
• Wearing masks - the CVL team will be wearing masks as sometimes we need to be closer that 2m. We encourage our clients to wear masks too.
• Tracing - We will be encouraging clients to use the COVID Tracer app or our manual sign in sheet.
• Hygiene - We will have a bountiful supply of hand sanitizer and will encourage it’s use.
• Social Distancing - We will be encouraging social distancing especially in our reception. Luckily, this will be easily facilitated through the use of our separate cat waiting area, and our smaller dog and larger dog waiting areas as well as our generous consult rooms.
• Health &Wellness - As a precaution we ask you to please postpone your appointment if you are not feeling well, or if you or a household member have been tested for COVID and are awaiting a result.
Finally – please feel free to ring us if you need to make a plan to fit with your situation – we are only a phone call away!
Kind regards,
The Companion Vets Team
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
