Hello,
I work at a rehab facility where hydrotherapy is offered for inpatients and outpatient rehabilitation.
I would like to know what are the recommendations now with patients attending hydrotherapy and mask wearing?
All of our patients coming into the hydro area will be wearing masks and as they are not putting their heads under water should they wear them while in the pool?
There will be other patients in the pool at the same time but will be distant from each other.
Regards,

Hello
Agree with Trish response, all our hydrotherapy pools remain closed in our LHD as part of our COVID 19 plans during the pandemic given the risk is still unacceptable in our community here, as all pools are located within our public hospital sites
