Pattinson House in Lockdown
Update as at 28/04/2022: COVID-19 response in aged care
The MTHCS Aged Care Hostel in Ouyen is currently in lockdown due to a COVID-19 outbreak. All residents are being cared for and we are responding quickly to manage the spread of COVID-19.
Visiting is not permitted at this time in order to help stop the spread of COVID-19.
We are keeping residents’ families up to date and will update our social media regularly to keep the community informed (https://www.facebook.com/malleetrackhealth).
How can you help?
- Understand the changes are designed to protect residents and staff. They will be temporary.
- Ask questions if you are worried about anything.
