Heywood Rural Health began its coronavirus vaccination program on Friday with both aged care residents and staff being vaccinated. Pictured here is resident and HRH life governor Gwenda Matthews being vaccinated by staff member Becca Schutz.
A team from Barwon Health’s public health unit came to town and helped HRH vaccination team in undertaking the day.
“The impact of COVID-19 on residents, staff and families has been significant but with most of the residents and over 60 per cent of staff able to undertake the vaccination, this marks a significant milestone for the facility,” a HRH spokeswoman said.
