Hk Carolyn,
I do some home visits, and have been rescheduling for June. I already have the appropriate PPE,although not enough masks to use for every patient.
Many of my home visit patients fall under the 12 week isolation, so I won’t be seeing them for a while yet.Suzanne Edge CH20364ParticipantHi Fiona,
Thanks, I’ll take a look. I can’t remember the brand I have, but I think they are all pretty much the same. You can text or email the patient a receipt, and a couple of days after, you receive a summery of what you have taken that day, with fees deducted, via email.
Suzanne Edge CH20364ParticipantHi Seemag,
I wish they would be a little clearer, we are classed as key workers, but we are advised only to see emergencies. Very confusing. I have managed to buy face shields, and had plenty of the rest, so I’m fine at the moment. I will probably continue to wear the shields, as they are better than ordinary eye protection against flying nails, and dust.
Suzanne Edge CH20364ParticipantHi Fiona,
I got the £10,000 grant which was linked to having small business rate relief on my premises. It doesn’t look too good for you does it? Did you put in any accounts last year? If not, I don’t believe you will be eligible for the 80% of earnings. It does seem very unfair that the help people are getting is so hit and miss. Taking card payments is great, I went overdrawn several times because I couldn’t get to the bank in time to pay money in, but a portable card machine is great, and of course more hygienic. I have tried to buy scrubs, which I don’t normally wear, but they are having problems getting them at the suppliers, so I will have to wait. I’m ok for all the other PPE though.
Suzanne Edge CH20364ParticipantIt will be a challenge to get people’s feet back into good condition. That’s why I was wondering if we could semi open for business. I am lucky that I am eligible for all of the help out there, and have already had the grant, so I could sit back and enjoy the very long holiday, but I do feel for my patients who are going to be suffering soon if we don’t get back to work.
Graham, do you not qualify for the grant? It does seem very unfair that some people get help and others not.Suzanne Edge CH20364ParticipantHi, I would be interested in the efficacy of the Swift too. I have fallen for sales pitch before and regretted it, so any unbiased results would be very interesting. I HATE VERRUCAE!!!! 🙂
