Dear Patient,
Protecting staff, patients and families is our number one priority.
In light of concerns relating to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) and the upcoming flu season, we are taking the below precautionary steps to protect everyone who visits or works in our Clinics and Hospitals:
Please call ahead if your child is displaying cold-like symptoms such as a cough or fever and needs treatment.
If you have traveled in the previous two weeks overseas please tell our Staff.
If your child’s appointment is not urgent and they are experiencing cold-like symptoms,we may need to reschedule their appointment. Please contact your child’s health care team to discuss.
Where possible, siblings should stay home and only one parent or carer should come to the Clinic or the Hospital.
Delivering safe healthcare remains our focus, and we appreciate your patience and understanding during this period.
MASK WEARING is STRONLY ENCOURAGED INDOORS at our CLINICS
Signed, Your Doctors.
