    Hi again,

    Another question from me, prompted by the recent changes to guidelines.

    Does anyone have air purifiers in their Aged Care Facilities and how do you use them and find their efficacy?

    Thanks in advance

    Kind regards,

    Chris

    Hi Lyn

    I work in private in NSW.
    We ask all patients to RAT the morning of admission and take a photo of result.
    If they cant manage we do it when they get here. Most do it themselves.
    We also screen, with questions when they get here!

    Afternoon,

    Just wanting to find out how the various private and public sectors are managing RAT testing patients if at all on admissions, we are trying to figure out whether or not to continue with this as it is resource draining and staff are needed elsewhere.

    Any information would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

    With kind regards
