25.01.2022 Just a real reminder to everyone!

23.01.2022 I know lots of people have been hanging out for today. We've come such a long way and now we're able to make a few changes. That's definitely worth celebratin...g. And it really is down to you. It's only because so many Victorians followed the advice that we've got the information and the confidence we need to take these steps. But and it's a big 'but' there's still a way to go. We still need everyone to use common sense and continue working from home wherever possible. I know not every job can be done remotely but if you can work from home, you must continue working from home. We simply can't have millions of trips on public transport every single day and maintain anything like the safe distancing we need. And if everyone hopped in the car and drove to work instead, our road network would be at a standstill. Limiting the number of people moving around the state means we're able to cautiously ease restrictions and get back to a few more of the things we've all been missing. Here's your quick guide to what's changed:

22.01.2022 INFORMATION IN RELATION TO OUR POLICIES Updating New Policies for COVID-19 All Geelong as of Sunday midnight Geelong Regional areas must wear a mask when out in public! If our participants or families are unable to wear masks for shifts with Support Workers or whilst out in public PR&AS must be notified as supports may need to be looked at as per personal circumstances.... We have purchased masks and gloves for all our staff - if the family or yourself that are using our services are finding it hard to purchase masks please let us know and we are happy to help you out! As of tonight midnight there is no visiting family or friends! If our participants or families are doing this you may put yourself, your family and the support worker at risk! If you are not following these orders by Dept Health you are at risk of sharing or contracting the virus. We are working very hard behind the scenes ensuring our services are following guidelines! Stay safe and well! From all Private Respite & Accommodation Services Management
