7 Aug 2024

Dear Residents, Relatives, Employees and Friends of Buckland,

After review of the NSW Respiratory Surveillance highlighting that COVID levels are low in the community, we have decided that all staff and visitors will no longer be required to complete a Rapid Antigen Test prior to entering the facility.

However, should any staff member or resident become symptomatic a Rapid Antigen Test as well as a PCR must be attended to. We encourage any visitors or staff with symptoms please stay home and do not enter the facility until they are symptom free.

Whilst testing is no longer required, staff and visitors will still be required to wear a mask at all times in the facility and to continue to wash their hands and sanitize regularly to help prevent any future outbreaks.

Thank you for your ongoing support

Should you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to us on (02) 4752 2500.

Warmest Regards,
 
Johannes Brockhaus
Chief Executive Officer
