Update on vaccine availability for Whiddon Narrabri families

11 May 2021

We are pleased to advise that we have received notification that residents at Whiddon Narrabri Jessie Hunt and Whiddon Narrabri Robert Young who have chosen to have the COVID-19 Pfizer (Comirnaty) vaccine, will receive their first dose of the vaccine between Tuesday 11 May and Friday 14 May. We understand that at this initial stage, the vaccine is only being offered to residents, not employees.

We have now received consent forms for all residents who have chosen to have the vaccine. We thank residents and their representatives for arranging for the forms to be completed for those choosing to have the vaccine. Whiddon supports the vaccination program to reduce the risks that COVID-19 poses to our residents.

Please find a range of resources below relating to the vaccine if you wish to read more about it.
