COVID-19 update | 19 July 2022

Tuesday, July 19, 2022

Dear Aberlea community,

I am writing to provide you all with an update on the rapidly evolving situation here at Aberlea. Based on yesterday’s Covid-19 positive resident, we completed a round of PCR tests for all residents. Unfortunately, we have had a significant number of residents return positive results today.

As a result, and under advice from the public response unit we have acted immediately and have within reason, asked residents to remain in their individual rooms as much as is practical. All residents are fully vaccinated and showing minor symptoms (if any) at this stage.

All affected residents’ families have been contacted and are being provided with daily updates. Whilst we are dealing with the outbreak, I would ask you all to reconsider your need to visit our facility and if possible, switch to virtual methods. We remind everyone that visitation is by prior arrangement. Please ring Deb on 0475 055394 to book your visits.

Throughout the outbreak, please contact the facility on any of the below listed numbers:

Aberlea Facility Ph. No: 03 55 992901 OR: Aberlea COVID Phone: 0491 905 548

I would further like to offer all of you the opportunity to attend an online discussion tomorrow, Wednesday 20.07.22 at 2.30pm.

Please contact Julie to express your interest and to obtain the meeting details. I thank you for your support though this challenging period. We have a great team of staff, and I am sure with your support we will manage this outbreak in line with your expectations.

If you have any queries or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us at any time.

Kind regards,

David Knight

Chief Executive Officer
