Health Update for Our Switzer Community

We would like to advise our community that we are currently managing an influenza outbreak within Switzer.
Several residents have tested positive and are being cared for, while we help limit the spread of infection.

Our team is closely monitoring the situation and following all recommended infection prevention and control measures to ensure the safety and wellbeing of our residents, staff, and visitors.

We kindly ask all visitors to:

• Clean or sanitise your hands on arrival and when leaving
• Cover coughs and sneezes
• Please do not visit if you are feeling unwell or experiencing cold or flu-like symptoms
• Follow any instructions provided by staff during your visit

Influenza is also currently circulating in the wider community, and these simple precautions can help protect some of our most vulnerable residents.

Thank you for your understanding, support, and cooperation as we work together to keep our Switzer community safe and well.
