Resident outings – attending family gatherings or excursions – 14-day isolation required on return

The NSW Health advice requires residents who elect to leave the facility anytime from now until 11:59pm on Wednesday 30 December to isolate for 14 days on their return.  Some families previously advised they wish to take their loved ones out of the facility over the Christmas period, and we appreciate with the changed health advice your plans may change.

Please contact the General Manager on 24^th December, if you still wish to take your loved one out of the facility in the next 7 day and continue to monitor the NSW Health website HERE and wear a mask when outside.

Please contact the office staff or your General Manager if you would like to clarify these arrangements or have any questions or concerns on
