08.01.2022 Government announcements of business restrictions DOES NOT affect Caritas Medical Centre - we are OPEN to serve you! Federal, state and territory governments are continuing to announce increased restrictions on some business operations to reduce the spread of COVID-19. General practices, as an essential service, are exempt from these restriction and will continue to operate. Caritas Medical Centre doctors are offering telehealth for our patients - this is a medical consult...ation with a doctor covered by Medicare on the phone for eligible patients. We can also make arrangements for scripts by faxing them to your pharmacist (have that number ready at the time of your phone consultation). Please check with our staff if you are eligible for telehealth. Some things cannot be diagnosed over the phone which is why we have adopted strict infection control measures within our practice to make it safer for our patients and staff to continue to offer face to face consultations. Many of our patients with diabetes, heart disease, asthma and many other conditions which are ongoing in nature will meet the eligibility criteria. Ring (9153 5363) and ask our staff it that applies to you and you need a phone consultation. We look forward to providing a medical service to you in these challenging times. Over the last few days we have been able to meet capacity and we post this in response to a number of fears patients have that we are closed or not seeing patients which is simply untrue. Stay well and healthy !
