Please note an important change to our Mask Policy at Happy Valley FHT. Due to the high transmissibility of the Omicron variant of COVID-19, we are no longer accepting the use of fabric masks in the clinic. Where possible, please wear a medical style of mask including a procedure/surgical mask or non-fit-tested respirator (N95, KN95) to your booked appointments. If you do not have access to this type of face covering, please wear what you have and our Screener will assist you. Thank you for your cooperation!

Follow this link for mask use advice in the community, including: when to wear a mask, what type of mask to choose, how to improve fit and other factors to consider when wearing a mask.
