Hi Robyn,
You should maybe think about reporting the shortage issue to Commonwealth
Deputy CMO Prof Michael Kidd. His secretariat oversee primary care COVID19
activities and they may be able to advise & +/- help source supplies

careHello brains trust
In SA, new Emergency Management (RACF) Directions have been put out
requiring all Care Workers, Nursing, Allied Health and Medical staff to wear
face masks in residential care facilities when social distancing can not be
achievedIt is unclear at this point what assistance we will be provided sourcing
these masks from SA HealthWe have calculated for our organisation (800+ residential beds) we will need
approximately 11,000 masks a weekOur PPE contractors have been unable to supply our previous orders for
masks, so we have no hope of securing these numbers on a weekly basisWe have also tried alternate suppliers we have sourced PPE from
Im not sure what ACIPC group rules are in place re my request, but I am
after any leads from within this group for sourcing TGA approved face masks
/ potential suppliersPlease delete my email if this request sits outside of group guidelines
Many thanks
Robyn
