Aged Care Access Initiative

The aim of the Aged Care Access Initiative is to improve access to allied health services for residents of low care in RACFs where these services are not currently covered by Medicare. Allied health services may be provided on an individual or group basis in the form of a ‘clinical bedside tutorial’ with the aim of facilitating allied health staff involvement as well as upskilling of aged care staff.

H1N1 Vaccine Alert

The Commonwealth supplied syringes contain latex and many syringes used in NSW Health facilities are latex-free. If using the Vaccination Pack syringes it is imperative to consider latex allergy and use an alternate syringe or delay vaccination until an alternate latex-free syringe is found. 

The question on the consent form "Has any severe allergies (to anything)" may assist the provider.
