11 Elders COVID-19 tests positive
Eleven Elders in the Hannah & Daryl Cohen Family Building in Windsor, Melbourne have returned positive tests for COVID-19.
The building in lockdown under the guidance of the Victorian Department of Health & Human Services (DHHS).
77 Elders have returned negative results with 12 still waiting for the results.
Jewish Care has stated: “Three Elders have been moved to new rooms on a separate floor to quarantine them from other Elders.
Those who have returned positive or negative results have been informed. Pending results will be communicated as soon as we know.
The 11 Elders are being cared for by our staff with clinical oversight from our Care Coordinator, the Elder’s respective GPs, and Alfred Health In-reach Services who attended to a review today.”
My mum is one of the elders who tested negative in this nursing home yesterday. I thought I’d just clarify the location given of “Windsor”. For those not familiar with Melbourne micro-suburbs, Windsor is a 7 by 12 block area between Prahran and St Kilda.
