Birchleigh Visiting Guidelines

There are currently no visitor restrictions in place at Birchleigh.

• Entrance doors will be unlocked during normal business hours.
• No booking is required.
• Visitors are welcome at any time – there are no specific visiting hours.
• No RAT test is required prior to visiting.
• There is no limit on the number of visitors.
• There is no requirement for visits to be in resident rooms.
• Please note that Covid positive Residents will be isolated for 5-7 days, until they have a negative RAT test, and any symptoms have cleared. 

However, with various forms of the Covid virus still present in the community, and the influenza season now upon us, we do ask you to remain vigilant regarding any cold, flu, or gastro symptoms, and stay away from Birchleigh if you have even minor symptoms.  Please delay any visiting until 48 hours after symptoms have cleared.

If we have further Covid outbreaks in our facility we may recommend Visitors wear a mask for your own protection. 

As always, these protocols are dependent on the current state of Covid cases.

All our protection measures are therefore subject to change at short notice.
