Updates to the ACAC Direction: physical distancing and chiropractor use of masks

Dear Colleagues,

To keep ACAC guidelines aligned with Public Health orders, the ACAC made revisions to the section on chiropractor/clinical staff use of masks and included a new section on physical distancing in the office.

Additionally, as of September 15, 2021, Alberta Health confirmed that the vaccine exemption program does not apply to regulated health professions. Chiropractic clinics are not required to implement the Restrictions Exemption Program or other business restrictions

These requirements are effective immediately.

Review revisions and new additions

Please note, all new and revised directions are marked with a highlighted tag in the table of contents and throughout the document.

Requirements:

Revised
- Overview
- Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
- Chiropractor/clinical staff use of masks

After reviewing these changes and if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to me.

Regards,
