Central City Chiropractic Clinic takes great care to ensure that our information records are accurate and are treated with full regard to the privacy of our patients. Following is an outline of the privacy
policy of our practice:
Central City Chiropractic Clinic only collects information from our patients that is necessary to properly diagnose and treat their condition, and to follow up on their recovery. Central City Chiropractic Clinic aims to ensure that
any information we hold is accurate, complete, and up to date.
The health information Central City Chiropractic Clinic holds helps to provide our patients with the best possible health care, and is normally disclosed only to other health care practitioners - such as the patient's doctor -
involved in their treatment (or where disclosure is required by law). If Central City Chiropractic Clinic needs to disclose information about a patient to people other than those associated with their treatment, we will seek the
patient's permission first.
Central City Chiropractic Clinic has systems in place to protect the security of your health records. Your personal information will be kept secure at all times and is protected from misuse, unauthorised access, modification or
disclosure. Nobody other than Central City Chiropractic Clinic staff has access to those records.
In line with normal business procedures, Central City Chiropractic Clinic maintains contact lists and mailing lists of people with whom they do business or wish to contact from time to time. Should you wish not to be part of their
contact lists, please let their staff know. You have a right to access the information Central City Chiropractic Clinic holds on you at any time and to seek correction of that information if it is incorrect.
In handling your personal information, Central City Chiropractic Clinic is committed to complying with the Privacy Act 1988 and the National Privacy Principles (NPP) effective under the Privacy Amendment Act 2001, and operates in
accordance with the Ethical Principles of the Chiropractors' Association of Australia.
