17.01.2022 Important news regarding masks: As you may be aware people living in metropolitan Melbourne and Mitchell Shire are required to wear a face covering when leaving home following a concerning increase in coronavirus cases. Please note wearing a mask inside Brightside Medical is a mandatory requirement for all people greater than 12 years of age. ... We ask people 2-12 years of age to wear a mask as tolerated. Children below 2 years old are not required to wear a mask. We look forward to continuing to care for you during this time. #brightsidemedical #gpwilliamstown #williamstowngp #masksafety

12.01.2022 COVID-19 UPDATE: There have been important changes made as per recommendations from the Victorian Department of Health and Human Services effective immediately regarding who should be tested for COVID-19. The following people now meet the criteria to be tested: - People who have fevers or chills without another explanation for this condition - People with an acute respiratory infection characterised by cough, sore throat or shortness of breath... - People who have these other symptoms (headache, muscle aches, runny or stuffy nose, inability to smell, nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea) AND who have been a close contact to a confirmed case of COVID-19 or returned overseas within last 14 days. This means that more patients may be asked by their GP to get tested. At Brightside Medical, assessment for eligibility will be coordinated on the phone via Telehealth prior to an offer for face to face consultation. We appreciate this is a lot of information to take in and we would recommend speaking to your GP for specific information. Here is a beautiful sunrise photo taken by our staff photographer Jenny #brightsidemedical #williamstown3016 #gpwilliamstown #williamstowngp #covid19update

07.01.2022 R U OK? No doubt you have seen messages related to this today encouraging each other to check in with our mental health. This message has significant relevance this year as we navigate the challenges of stage 4 lockdown restrictions. ... It’s OK if you don’t feel OK. If you aren’t OK or someone you know is not OK then please take this opportunity to connect with your support people and seek help from a trusted health professional (such as your GP). Or access a service like Lifeline which is available 24/7 on 131114. Please take care and be kind to ourselves and each other. Here’s a working-from-home photo from our nurse Victoria.

05.01.2022 Love working with our staff who do a great job helping out our patients during this time! We thank everyone for doing their part in keeping Victoria safe.

01.01.2022 We tried something different today! Very grateful to have Victoria our nurse work from home and we think it was a great success! Victoria has been a nurse for 4 years and has worked at Brightside Medical since July 2019. She is passionate about her work and loves to take blood, even better when it’s a challenging vein. She has a 2 year old cat named Flynn and you’ll either find her at the beach or with family when she is not at work. #workingfromhome #hiflynn #brightsidemedical #gpwilliamstown #williamstowngp #dreamteam
