Safety Protocols & Clinical Processes

At ConnectCare, we continue to follow safety protocols and clinical processes to help keep everyone healthy and safe

Serving Our Patients Before, During and After COVID-19

During the height of the pandemic, we remained opened to serve our communities via virtual phone and video visits as well as in clinic visits for those needing immediate care with enhanced safety measures. Thanks to the efforts of all our fellow community members and neighbours by staying home and effectively controlling the spread of the virus, we will continue to expand our services to meet the needs of our communities with continued health and safety measures.

How we are keeping our patients safe

Guided by Alberta Health Services and recommendations from the Public Health Agency of Canada, we have taken a number of steps outlined in our Safety Protocols & Clinical Processes below in addition to our standard rigorous infection control measures to ensure our facilities remain safe places for you to confidently receive care.

You can be confident that you will receive safe, high-quality, compassionate care from your ConnectCare team!
