Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to advise a dedicated COVID-19 Vaccination Clinic will be set up at our Calvary Ryde Retirement Community for all Calvary employees living in the Greater Sydney region to book in for their COVID-19 vaccination over the next three weeks (with follow up vaccinations in the following three weeks). The Clinic will be managed by St Vincent’s Hospital, who will be administering the Pfizer vaccine.
Given the current pressures on the national COVID-19 vaccination program, the COVID-19 Vaccination Clinic will help us fast-track access to vaccinations for our frontline Retirement Community, Community Care and Kogarah teams, as well as national office staff and our Ryde residents.
Under the current lockdown restrictions, people are permitted to leave their homes to get the COVID-19 vaccine, and we encourage those of you who have not yet been vaccinated to take advantage of the clinic, which is only available to Calvary employees and our Ryde residents.
When
- The first clinic will be this Friday 2nd July from 11am to 3pm and every Friday after that for the next 5 weeks. The first three weeks will be for the first vaccination and the second three weeks for the second.
- Bookings are essential to ensure sufficient vaccine is available and to minimise disruption on the Calvary Ryde
campus.
Where
- The clinic will be located at the Chapel at Calvary Ryde Retirement Community, 678 Victoria Road, Ryde.
- Please proceed through Gate 1 and park at either side as
you enter. Please follow the signage to the Chapel.
Who is eligible?
- All Calvary staff regardless of age.
- You will need to bring your Calvary ID pass with you, formal identification such as a drivers licence and your Medicare
card.
