The person had no immediate family and was well cared for by dedicated Newmarch House staff.
On behalf of our resident, we mourn his death and appreciate that he was part of our Anglicare family while caring for them.
His passing highlights how terrible this virus is and how devastating it is to the elderly in our community.
The impact of Covid-19 on older people is increasingly evident in Australia and internationally and this is extremely distressing for other residents, their families and members of the community at large.
Anglicare thanks the support of the Commonwealth government to help us find an infection control specialist who is currently on site this week, monitoring and reviewing all current infection and contamination control procedures.
We also appreciate government support in implementing the family support program, which will allow registered nurses to communicate regularly with families about their loved ones.
