Services During COVID-19 Crisis
During the COVID-19 pandemic, orthopaedic services in Warrnambool have been greatly reduced.
We have continued to provide an emergency service for treatment of fractures and other bone and joint injuries, as well urgent elective cases throughout the shutdowns. Mr Sutherland has been closely involved in managing the surgical implications of the pandemic both locally and at State level
Things are now back to normal activity, and we thank you for your patience as we take up the backlog of work that did not get done during 2020.
We will undertake screening of all incoming patients, for surgery or for clinics; we ask all who are ill or who have been in contact with possible COVID cases to stay away from the hospital and Rooms. If you have a respiratory illness, you should contact your GP or the Respiratory Clinic at South West Healthcare (or your local Respiratory Clinic). We encourage all eligible patients to take up the Coronavirus Vaccines offered to them.
We review our processes frequently.
Please support your local public and private medical services; your local specialists are committed to the region, committed to you.
