If you have returned from anywhere overseas in the last 14 days AND have symptoms of fever, sore throat or shortness of breath please do not enter our hospital.
This precaution includes visitors and any patients booked for elective surgery, which should be postponed for 14 days after returning to Australia.
All urgent admissions (e.g. maternity), with a history of overseas travel will be admitted and managed in consultation with the treating doctor and the appropriate infection control precautions will be applied.
As you may be aware there are now three COVID-19 testing clinics operating in Perth, the closest to our hospital is located at Royal Perth Hospital.
Thank you in advance for your assistance with this initiative.
