Hi Team,
I am after some advice regarding staff working across multiple sites in RACF.
We are Victorian based, and lucky enough to be in an area of no known active cases but am cautious at the idea of ‘sharing’ staff.
Does the department currently have any recommendations out, or is it up to each facility to determine the risk?Kind regards,
Sarah Bulzomi

Hi Sarah,
There has been comprehensive advice provided to your CEO via the daily Health Service Bulletin – you might like to ask your CEO to provide you a copy of this daily update – it has a lot of information that is of importance to infection control and is often not found on any websites.
