Update to Whiddon Temora families

17 January 2022

Further to our update to you last week, an additional employee has tested positive to COVID-19 at Greenstone Lodge.

While the risk of potential exposure is considered low, as a precaution, we ask that you consider delaying your visit this week if you can. If you do need to visit, you will be asked to wear an N95 mask, face shield and gown, which will be supplied to you. We also ask that you complete a rapid antigen test when you arrive. This does not impact Narraburra Lodge.

Residents are strongly encouraged to not leave the care home for now, again as a precautionary measure. Our employees are wearing full personal protective equipment (PPE) and our robust COVID-19 management plan means that we have strict protocols in place to avoid potential spread of the virus across our care home. We continue to work closely with the local Public Health Unit and follow their advice.

We thank you for your understanding and patience during this time. We will provide a further update to you soon.
