I am pleased to inform residents and families that all tested Calvary St Catherine’s residents have received negative results from the latest round of testing. In line with Public Health Unit advice, we now are able to declare the outbreak over and lift the current visitation restrictions at Calvary St Catherine’s.

Consistent with Calvary’s Position Statement on Visiting in Aged Care Calvary St Catherine’s will welcome more visitors back into the home from tomorrow 07 May 2022.

Information for visitors

Calvary St Catherine’s is open to visitors from 07 May 2022.
There is now no limit to the number of visitors allowed per resident, per day, however only two (2) visitors may visit at one time. Visitors must adhere to social distancing guidelines.
We ask that you book your visit with us for now, to book please contact by calling (08) 8582 9600 or email admin.berri@calvarycare.org.au
Visitors will be required to complete screening requirements prior to entry and wear appropriate PPE (including face mask and shield) whilst visiting. PPE is provided by Calvary.
As a precaution to keeping residents safe, visitors will be required to have a rapid antigen test (RAT test) before entering the home. This takes time, and we ask for your patience as we manage this important screening process.
If you have any questions please speak with the home manager.

Our staff will continue to closely monitor all residents for symptoms of COVID-19.

We are very grateful to our residents and families for your continued support and understanding during this challenging time, and very much look forward to receiving visitors back into the home. You can help us by sharing this information with your family and friends.

Sincerely,

Ryan Midgley,
