About the COVID-19 Vaccine
Information current as at 15 October 2021.
Australia introduced a positive COVID-19 milestone on Sunday 21 February, when the Federal Government kicked off Australia’s COVID-19 vaccine program.
Since that date, Auscare Support has been encouraging its clients, employees, and contractors to get vaccinated.
We believe the vaccine is an important line of defence against COVID-19, and for that reason it is a condition of employment for employees in NSW to be vaccinated if they are providing in person supports. In Victoria any Auscare Support employees or contractors must also be vaccinated, regardless of their role.
Any Auscare Support employee or contactor who is not fully vaccinated will not be able to provide in person supports to any of our clients. We are working through that detail at the moment.
