The COVID-19 vaccination program is being rolled out by the Australian Government to offer protection against the virus.
From 31 October, the Australian Government made it mandatory for all residential aged care workers to be fully vaccinated.
It will also be mandatory for all private healthcare workers to be fully vaccinated by 15 December, including home care and community services staff.
For those already fully vaccinated, the COVID-19 vaccination booster program is now underway for staff who received two doses of the vaccine more than six months ago.
We are supporting all staff and residents through the vaccination process.
