However, all the above measures are expected to only reduce but do not eliminate the risk of contacting or spreading the COVID-19.
The clinic has implemented Virtual Care screening for non-urgent referrals to our EMG lab in adherence with the CPSA statement on March 21, 2020 to utilize virtual care and to limit physical examination to the most necessary cases.
Based on the Virtual Care screening, the EMG specialist will decide the best course of action for the patient and if the patient needs to attend in clinic assessment to perform the study. If the study is not considered necessary at the time of the assessment, the patient will be placed on our wait list to have the study performed once we get further update regarding the COVID-19 virus outbreak.
