COVID-19 vaccine rollout begins

26 April, 2024

The first phase of the national COVID-19 vaccine roll-out (Phase 1a) for RACF residents and workers, is planned to commence from Monday 22 February 2021. Residential aged care Residents and Workers will be among the first people who can choose to receive the vaccine in the first roll-out phase (Phase 1a). In preparation for this, together with Families, Advocates and GPs, we will be supporting Residents who choose to have the vaccine with obtaining their consent and registering them for Phase 1a of the roll out.
