COVID-19 IN THE AUCKLAND REGION

Information for Aged Residential Care (ARC) providers

COVID-19 information and resources for Aged Residential Care facility providers, their residents, resident families and staff.

If there is a case at your Aged Residential Care facility your District Health Board (DHB) will work with you closely to implement an outbreak plan, and help manage communications to residents. Public Health will also work with you and the DHB to assess who needs to get tested and isolate. 

If you have a case on-site, or are worried about a resident / staff member with symptoms, you should contact your DHB for further advice.
