I am pleased to inform residents and families that all tested Calvary St Francis 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 Francis.

Consistent with Calvary’s Position Statement on Visiting in Aged Care Calvary St Francis will welcome more visitors back into the home from 04 May 2022.
