Visitor restrictions update
As announced over the weekend, NSW Health has advised that the current restrictions to visitors coming into residential aged care homes within the Greater Sydney area, including metropolitan Sydney, Nepean Blue Mountains, Central Coast and Wollongong have been extended for a further seven days. This applies to Whiddon Easton Park and Whiddon Hornsby. Visitors must wear a mask and will be required to have their temperature checked before entering our home.
Visitors must not enter any aged care facility in NSW at all if they:
- have been to any close or casual contact locations in NSW or interstate places of high concern
- have COVID-19 symptoms – fever (37. 5°C or higher) or symptoms of COVID-19
- are a close contact of a person with confirmed COVID-19 and are within their self-isolation period
- live in a household with a person who is currently self-isolating
- are waiting for a COVID-19 test result
Please ensure you don’t visit if you are unwell, stay 1.5 m from others and practice good hand hygiene.
The Chief Health Officer is advising all residential aged care facilities in NSW to implement electronic check-in systems to support efficient contact tracing if positive COVID-19 cases were to occur in a facility. Please remember to check in when visiting by scanning the QR code available in reception areas. If you don’t have a smart phone, please use the iPad that is available at Reception.
