UPDATED 28/12/2020
The Australian Government – Department of Health- is working to keep those in aged care COVIDsafe in Australia. While restrictions are easing within our community’s some special restrictions will remain in place for all aged care facilities. This is to protect our older generation.
All aged care facilities are to restrict facility visits in line with the Australian Health Protection Principal committee’s advice. Certain people can not enter a Residential Aged Care facility, those are:
- Visitors who have returned from overseas in the last 14 days
- Visitors who have been in a known HOTSPOT
- Visitors who have been in contact with someone confirmed to have COVID-19 in the last 14 days
- Visitors with a fever or symptoms of a respiratory illness
Aged Care facilities currently have resources to assist with keeping in touch with those who can not enter at this time. These resources include phone calls or video calls. Speak with the facility directly to find out other ways of communication.
If you are eligible to visit an aged care facility the visit needs to be conducted in the resident's room or outside, and not a communal space. Visits are restricted to 2 people at one time.
*Residents are also now able to leave the facility (conditions are noted on the Dept of Health webpage).
CHECK WITH EACH FACILITY - some NSW Facilities are currently in LOCKDOWN, others have restricted visiting hours.
For more information on these restrictions, you can visit the Department of Health website.
