COVID jab status remains up to aged care workers
AGED care workers do not need to disclose if they’ve received a COVID-19 vaccination despite a new requirement for mandatory reporting of jab numbers by providers.
Under current Health Department guidelines “it is voluntary for workers to be vaccinated and to disclose if they have received a COVID-19 vaccination”.
“For all aged care workers in in-home and community aged care, and in residential aged care, it remains voluntary for workers to be vaccinated and to disclose if they have received a COVID-19 vaccination,” the guidance states.
From June 15, it will be mandatory for aged care providers to report vaccination numbers to the Federal Government on a weekly basis.
“Whilst facilities are required to report, it remains voluntary for workers to be vaccinated and to disclose if they have received a COVID-19 vaccination,” Health Minister Greg Hunt said in a statement on Friday. - AAP
