Yes. The government has released an information sheet for anyone who might be considering putting their home care on hold during the COVID-19 pandemic (or have already done so). The Department of Health advises Australians to keep up their regular home care and health care. This is just as important as protecting yourself from coronavirus. Prestige is continuing to follow the advice of the Federal and State health authorities in regard to this evolving situation, which is shared with our employees regularly so they can provide the best care for you or your loved one. Prestige care workers visiting your home are taking all necessary measures to ensure you stay safe.
To access the Government information sheet for older people who may have an aged care worker visiting them at home go to:
