Flint House Coronavirus Update

21 August 2020

Update – 19 August 2020

I am sure you will be pleased to learn we have gone public as of yesterday with the news that we will be admitting physiotherapy patients in reduced numbers on Monday 7 September.  We are still working on getting all the information nodes in place with a consistent message and using all communication routes available to ensure the news is out there.

For those who require our services please apply in the normal way.

The Flint House patient application to attend is the same as prior to the coronavirus lockdown and the requisite forms are to be found at https://www.flinthouse.co.uk/attending/application-form

The team at Flint House has been working hard to ensure that when we admit patients for treatment it is safe to do so. This has been challenging due to our obligations to comply with the guidelines across the various sectors; hotel and catering, bars and pubs, gymnasiums and healthcare simultaneously whilst accommodating patient officers from a wide geographical area.

The centre will only be able to offer residential physiotherapy treatment to those patients who have completed the remote consultations with us. Due to the interactive nature of our mental health programme, we will not be able to offer this residentially for the time being. 

The clinical team will then assess the benefits of a five-day residential stay for the applicant assuming that they are eligible after strict COVID risk assessments.

Patients will be contacted directly by the centre. Initially the numbers will be small with a view to expanding within the limits of safe social distancing. Stringent pre-admission protocols and daily screening regimes are being developed to ensure the safety of all patients and staff.

Should any queries arise please do not hesitate to contact us on 01491 874499 or at reception@policerehab.co.uk

Kind Regards
