COVID-19 Latest Information
As a residential aged care service provider, we play an important role in ensuring residents and workers are protected against COVID-19. It’s important to ask the question: How prepared are you for a COVID-19 outbreak?

Providers can access resources to ensure their services are doing everything possible to prevent, prepare for and reduce the impact of a COVID-19 outbreak.
COVID-19 vaccination is voluntary but strongly encouraged for residents in aged care facilities.

There are consumer resources to assist residents and families to stay safe from COVID-19 and understand their provider responsibilities.
