We are very pleased to advise you that the additional precautions implemented at Whiddon Kelso in response to the potential risk of COVID-19 exposure, have now been lifted. This means that we can return to normal operations, however, noting that we are still unable to welcome visitors due to the NSW Health Directives that remain in place. If you do need to visit under exceptional circumstances, such as for an end-of-life visit, please speak to the Director Care Services.
As mentioned in our last update, residents were re-tested last Friday out of an abundance of caution and they have all returned negative results. This is very welcome news and we thank the Kelso team for their response to the identified risk and their efforts and dedication to keep everyone safe and well.
We also thank you for your understanding and patience as we know that this has been a difficult time.
While we cannot welcome visitors, our team is working hard to ensure that residents stay connected to their loved ones. If you would like to book a Whiddon Connect, Skype or Zoom session with your loved one, please contact our team.
