Message from Dr. Ken Brough, Chair, Board of Directors, OCA:
The Ontario Chiropractic Association (OCA) is alarmed by the resignations of four of nine elected Council members of the College of Chiropractors of Ontario (CCO), the body privileged with the mission to regulate the profession in the public interest to assure ethical and competent chiropractic care.

The OCA is concerned that the changes in Council membership will distract CCO from important work related to:
1. The Advertising Standards
2. The Business Practices Guidelines

OCA provided significant feedback on those proposed changes on Friday, August 23, 2019.

We are hopeful CCO will continue to champion the request to the Ministry of Health for scope enhancement to enable chiropractors to order essential diagnostic and lab tests. CCO, OCA and the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College (CMCC) collaborated on this comprehensive proposal.

Our Chiropractic Members are Preparing and Returning to Practice
On May 26, Ontario’s Chief Medical Officer of Health announced that all regulated health professionals may begin the “gradual re-start of all deferred and non-essential and elective services carried out by health care providers,” as stated in Directive 2.

To help members return to practice in compliance with the College of Chiropractors (CCO), Chief Medical Officer of Health and Ministry of Health directives, we’re providing tools and resources. Establishing processes and documentation to keep patients, health professionals, staff and colleagues safe is paramount.

We’re pleased that patients, who have waited to receive care from their chiropractors, will soon have access to assessment, diagnosis and treatment.
