Important information regarding Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI) outbreak for Whiddon Mudgee – 170826

Dear Whiddon Mudgee families, friends and representatives,

We are currently managing a potential Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI) outbreak in C Wing. A number of residents are experiencing acute respiratory symptoms.

Preliminary testing has been completed and results have returned negative; however, additional infection prevention and control measures have been implemented to reduce the risk of further transmission. Repeat testing will be undertaken in 48 hours to determine whether current precautions should continue, be revised, or be ceased.

We request that all visitors wear a mask when visiting their loved one and refrain from visiting if they are feeling unwell or experiencing any respiratory symptoms.

Thank you for your understanding while our team manages this potential outbreak.

Whiddon Mudgee
