Visitor Restrictions due to COVID 19 in Greater Sydney Area

21 December 2020

 VISITOR RESTRICTIONS

 FROM 21 DECEMBER UNTIL MIDNIGHT 23 DECEMBER 2020

 It is with the deepest regret that we advise that we have received advice from NSW Health today confirming that visitors may not visit Nursing Homes in NSW including the Loreto Home of Compassion and Mary Potter Nursing Home. The advice states: 

  • all residential aged care facilities across NSW must exclude visitors. Visitors performing essential caring functions may be exempted. Where there are exceptional circumstances (for example, a dying relative), seek advice from your local NSW Health public health unit on 1300 066 055

  • all staff and exempted visitors must wear a surgical mask while in a residential aged care facility.

 This restriction will be reviewed by NSW Health on the 23rd of December and we will update our website as the advice changes. If you have any questions please contact us at Loreto on 02 6971 5715 or Mary Potter on 02 6932 3011. Alternatively contact the public health unit on 1300 066 055.

 Yours sincerely,
