Dear family member/resident representative,
Thank you for your support as we manage the current outbreak of COVID-19 within your loved one’s aged care centre.
Since writing to you yesterday six of our residents who were diagnosed with COVID-19 have been transferred to our COVID-19 unit at Kirrawee in the Sutherland Shire. While there they will be closely monitored as they continue their recovery with others who have tested positive.
Seven residents with COVID-19 remain at the care centre and are being monitored as they experience a range of symptoms from moderate to none at all.
All residents who haven’t tested positive will be tested today via the PCR method and again on Sunday and I will provide another update on Tuesday when we hope to have these results. If your loved one tests positive staff will be in touch with you directly to let you know.
Meanwhile, we continue to encourage all residents to remain in their rooms and avoid moving about the building. The Lifestyle team has distributed activity packs for a range of interests to residents, and they are helping where needed with phone or video calls to family and friends.
Visiting arrangements
With the care centre now managing an outbreak you are encouraged to postpone your visit. If you do continue with your plans to visit the arrangements below now apply. Please assist the care centre by complying with the following:
Please do not visit your loved one if you are experiencing any symptoms or are feeling unwell, even if the symptoms are mild. Even if you have a negative COVID-19 test result you may still have influenza which is highly contagious.
Please pass this message on to others as you consider appropriate and if you have any questions please contact your Care Manager.
Thank you for your ongoing co-operation.
Yours sincerely
Richard Walsh
Acting EGM – Aged Care Centres
