MYA has been working through a 3-phased plan introducing more activity as we continue to learn the best ways to operate in a COVID-19 world. We have reduced in-person consultations, started with minor operations in hospitals with a plan to build on this base in the coming weeks. We have a reduced number of core clinics and we will keep this position under continuous review. Further government guidance and the learnings made during the first phase will help inform when we can keep moving through the phases. We are sharing the enhanced safety measures we have put in place to ensure that patients are fully informed before having their procedure with MYA. We want patients to feel reassured that we are doing everything possible to keep them safe and providing them with the highest level of care. Keeping our staff and patients safe is our main priority.
As it currently stands our physical clinics are closed with some sites going through a phased opening with limited activity – many processes still remain on hold during this time.
We are having to adapt daily to the changing situation, new government guidance and enhanced safety measures. This means that for a limited time, certain procedure types and medical conditions are unable to go ahead right now and will be phased in at various later stages. While the majority of procedures will proceed with little disruption, a small number (due to procedure type, medical history and / or surgeon availability) will have to wait a little longer. Keeping our staff and patients safe is our main priority but unfortunately this doesn’t come without some disappointment when people have been planning this significant event for a long time.
