If you are attending an EACH site, we need your help to keep you, our staff and the community safe from COVID-19. You can help reduce the risk of COVID-19 spreading by:
✔️ check with our staff if you need to wear a face mask;
✔️ maintaining physical distancing where possible – stay 1.5 metres away from other people;
✔️ wash your hands regularly and utilise our sanitising stations on-site;
✔️ practice good hygiene – cough/sneeze in a tissue or your elbow and avoid touching your face;
✔️ if you have any symptoms, no matter how mild, get tested and stay home.
If we are visiting you at home or in the community, we also ask that you follow these steps to ensure safety.
We all have a role to play in ensuring the health and safety of our community. By following these simple messages, we can reduce the risk of transmission and keep our community safe.
