15.01.2022 From 11:59pm tonight, 22 November there are changes to restrictions for mask wearing. Masks are required: Indoors On public transport ... When you can’t keep your distance outdoors Please keep up the healthy habits you have developed this year as we move to COVID Normal. Masks prevent an infected person from projecting their droplets into the air around them, and non-infected people from breathing in the virus. Wearing a mask when you can’t keep your distance helps keep you safe, the people you love safe, and Victoria open. #COVID19Vic

11.01.2022 Here’s the changes to restrictions in regional Victoria from today. You can have up to two people visit you at home each day. Infants under 12 months are not included in this cap, and other dependents can also attend if they cannot be left unattended or cared for in another setting. The two people may be from different households. This replaces the household bubbles. Libraries and toy libraries will be able to open to a maximum of 20 people indoors.... People will be able to hold outdoor religious gatherings with up to 20 people and 50 from 1 November. Hospitality businesses will be able to host up to 40 customers indoors and up to 70 outdoors from 11:59pm tonight. From 1 November (or earlier if announced) non-contact indoor sport will be allowed to resume for under-18s, including dance classes. You must still : keep wearing a mask, keep maintaining your distance and if you feel sick, get tested and stay home. Here’s the link to the DHHS website with metro and regional restrictions: https://www.dhhs.vic.gov.au/summary-of-the-changes-to-restr

10.01.2022 Just reminding everyone of the thunderstorm asthma warnings for Victoria today amid windy, hot weather. Moderate risk is forecast for Central, North Central, West & South Gippsland regions while its HIGH in other parts of the state. Have your asthma plan ready. You can get updates here : ... http://emergency.vic.gov.au/prepare/ See more

10.01.2022 This might be helpful information given today’s warning of thunderstorm asthma conditions.

08.01.2022 As the countdown begins to the weekend AFL grandfinal, staff at West Gippsland are in the spirit decorating departments and adding some footy colour to brighten up everyone's day.

05.01.2022 The situation in NSW is changing fast. If you've been following the news today, you'll know that case numbers are continuing to grow. There are still missing li...nks in the chains of transmission, which suggests there'll be more cases out there that the authorities are yet to find. Without mandatory masks and stay at home orders across Sydney, we do not have confidence that the situation remains safe. That's why from 11:59pm tonight, the Greater Sydney area and the Central Coast will be designated a 'red zone'. People who live in these areas or have visited since 11 December cannot enter our state. Anyone from the red zone found trying to enter Victoria in breach of these orders will be subject to mandatory 14-day hotel quarantine. For Victorians currently in Greater Sydney or on the Central Coast, you'll have until 11:59pm on Monday 21 December to return home. You'll need to register for an exemption on the Service Victoria website and get tested within 24 hours of your return. You'll then need to self-quarantine at home for 14 days from the date you were last in a red zone. DHHS teams will be checking on people to make sure they have everything they need and to make sure they're at home. Anyone currently in the Northern Beaches 'hot zone' including Victorians remain under the NSW Chief Health Officer's stay at home orders and will not be permitted to travel to Victoria. Victoria Police are setting up additional border check-points to ensure only those with permits are allowed to cross into our state. Regional New South Wales remains a green zone, but residents will still need a valid permit to enter Victoria. People living in local government areas along both sides of the border will be able to use their driver's licence as a passport to travel between Victoria and NSW. We're also working with the ACT Government to stop travellers from the red zone entering Victoria via Canberra Airport. Nothing about these decisions is easy. I know lots of families will be feeling pretty gutted especially since we've all waited so long for that special time together. But let's face it nothing could be as disappointing as seeing all our sacrifices evaporate. Nothing is worth that risk. Just finally this will only work if we all do the right thing. Please don't look for loopholes or try and skirt the rules. Your family, your community and your state depend on it.

03.01.2022 Thank you to 12 year old Brylie for donating $1000 to the Oncology Unit to help people living with cancer. Brylie raised the money through the sale of masks that she spent hours making. The donation was made in the memory of her grandmothers, Wendy Earwicker and Sandra Feddersen. ... Brylie is a wonderful example of a community minded young person. She is also a Girl Guide working to achieve a Baden-Powell award #thankyou #kindness #BPaward #girlguides #quietachiever

02.01.2022 There was a strong show of support to the Walk Against Family Violence in Warragul today with people wearing bright orange as a symbol of a bright future free from violence. A group of 12 WGHG staff from Gladstone Street Community Health Centre walked to the Warragul Community Gardens, joined by WGHG Board Chair, Christine Holland. A smaller group also walked from WGHG’s Rawson Community Health Centre around Crater Lake. Staff wore orange to show their support for victim-surv...ivors. The annual event helps to send a message that family violence is not ok and will not be tolerated. The campaign coincides with the United Nation’s #16DaysofActivismagainstGenderbasedViolence. #WAFV2020
