Present your flu vaccine evidence when entering any Aged Care facility! Its the law!

09th April, 2020

Share with your friends

The Australian Government Department of Health has bought in legislation on the 18th of March 2020 requiring every person going into an aged care facility to have evidence of a current flu vaccine.

From the Australian Government Department of Health website

Does everyone entering a residential aged care service need to be vaccinated?
Yes. This applies to staff, visitors, health practitioners, volunteers, and others (for
example, cleaners, tradesman, gardeners, maintenance staff).

  • You must collect a current flu vaccine certificate
  • You are not allowed onsite if under 16
  • Many customers (Aged Care is now compulsory) are now temperature checking any person coming on-site and recording the details.
  • Most customers are setting up an onboarding process for new visitors.

Let Visitor Management help you comply!

Stop non-compliant people signing in

You can also load the details of the flu vaccine certificate including expiry dates against the profile of regular visitors like family members of residents. This allows fast sign in each time the family members attend the location while the expiry dates of the vaccination are automatically checked.

You can be notified immediately when any person tries to sign in without evidence of a flu vaccine certificate.

 

“The Public Health (COVID-19 Residential Aged Care Facilities – RACF) Order 2020 – under Clause 5, persons are not to enter or remain on premises of a RACF if the person has a temperature higher than 37.5 degrees or symptoms of acute respiratory infection.”

You can also easily record who took the temperature reading.

Visitor contractor induction compliance for aged care – How can this help you?
11th May, 2017
Natalie Fort

Aged care facilities have really taken off over the past 6 months where interest is very strong to replace archaic manual time consuming systems to manage visitors and contractors including inductions and insurances that are set up in a very decentralized way.  Many hours are wasted every week trying to maintain a manual visitor management system that in many cases also includes contractor management. Recent discussions with Aged care facilities included not only discussions about visitors and contractors and the compliance of these people attending the location but has also […]
