Please note that there are a small number of residents who are experiencing flu-like symptoms at Whiddon Moree. The loved ones of the residents affected have already been contacted. We have also contacted the local public health unit who have asked us to take a number of measures to help keep everyone safe.
To help limit potential spread of infection among residents, employees and in the community, we ask that you do not visit Whiddon Moree for now. While some residents may need to be isolated based on the advice we have received from the local public health unit, we want to reassure you that affected residents are in no way ‘locked’ in their room. Our teams are working hard to keep these residents connected with their loved ones.
If you do need to visit under exceptional circumstances, such as an end of life visit, please speak with the Director Care Services.
We have no reason to believe this is a COVID-19 outbreak and are undertaking testing to determine the infection.
We will provide a further update soon once we know more about the situation and we thank you for your understanding.
