Healthcare visiting guide

The report outlines a set of principles, as developed by health consumer representatives, in response to the challenges faced by NSW Health with protecting staff, patients, families, and all who enter the facilities, from COVID-19.

We hope it will inform and bring to the fore patient and family perspectives around the issues faced by restricting patients’ visitors into health facilities. It recognises each of the stakeholder groups as essential and significant players in keeping each other safe and acknowledges that no one stakeholder group can succeed alone. We are all dependent on each other.
