COVID-19 Information

With the Government easing more of the COVID isolation restrictions the following restrictions STILL APPLY in healthcare settings.

· If you test positive you must not visit high-risk settings like healthcare until at least 7 days after testing positive and you have no symptoms.

· Southern Medical Centre will continue to offer Telehealth appointments for all COVID positive patients.

· For the protection of our staff and other patients, who are vulnerable and immunocompromised, Household/Close contacts are not permitted to           visit our premises during the usual 7-day isolation period

· If you have any of the COVID symptoms you will be required to have had a negative RAT test and wear a mask before entering our premises.

· NSW Health strongly recommends people who are sick or have tested positive to COVID-19 stay at home until their symptoms have gone.

Booster Covid Vaccines

· All adults can get a booster if it’s been 6 months or more since your last COVID-19 vaccine or confirmed COVID-19 infection – whichever was most recent.

· A booster is particularly recommended for people at higher risk of severe illness, including people:

· 65 years or older

· 18 years or older with medical conditions, disability or complex health needs.

Kids Covid Vaccines

· We are no longer providing childrens vaccinations - this may change depending on demand. 

Positive Covid Cases

· Most of the symptoms of Covid-19 can be managed from home.

· If you are pregnant or have a chronic condition you can call the NSW Health COVID-19 Care at Home Support Line on 1800 960 933 or your GP for treatment advice.

Patients who are positive for COVID-19 CANNOT present to the GP clinics to see a doctor.

We can offer you a Telehealth appointment that can be made by calling the surgery.
