Further Update on Home-Based Clinics in Victoria
There has been a further change in directions for home-based clinics in Victoria. The State Government's COVID-19 General Business FAQ webpage now states that 'Home-based businesses no longer require a discrete work area in order to operate, subject to the restrictions of their industry.'
Please note that it is still a requirement for massage therapists, remedial massage therapists and myotherapists to wear a mask while seeing clients in any setting and it is strongly recommended for clients to wear a mask in settings were they are unable to properly socially distance.
The Association recommends home-based clinics meet Association Clinical Settings Guidelines. If you work out of a home-based clinic and you have not already, please contact your local council as there may be additional requirements set by the council that need to be met.
Massage & Myotherapy Australia will continue to monitor the situation and notify members of any additional changes to directions.
