Limits on visits at Seymour Health

Visitors to both services will be by appointment only, in consultation with the nurse in charge.

“We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause. However, we consider the safety of our patients and residents is of the utmost importance at this time,” Seymour Health clinical services director Anne Daley said.

The Seymour Health COVID-19 Vaccination Clinic is at the east end of Seymour Health, behind the community dental building. Follow directional signage, teardrop banners and blue footpath stickers.

Clinic access is via Villers St and car parking is available in front of the clinic. The Seymour Health COVID-19 Vaccination Clinic is being run in partnership with Goulburn Valley Health.

The Seymour Health COVID-19 testing clinic recently became a drive-through clinic and the location has now moved to the community services building. Entry is still via Callen St - follow the signs to the community services building.

Due to the rapidly increasing demand for testing, Seymour Health is currently experiencing high call volumes and longer wait times than usual.

The team is asking for co-operation from the community to allow priority testing during this time.

Priority will be given to those people who have been contacted by the Department of Health to be tested and isolate and those people currently displaying COVID-19 symptoms.

To make an appointment for a COVID-19 test, phone 5793 6100.

You will be given a time to visit the COVID-19 drive-through testing clinic, where you can remain in your car for added convenience and safety.
