SPRING BOOSTERS #MasksInHealthcare

The Spring booster campaign brings together the most vulnerable people for their 6 monthly vaccines - which are known to wane after 5m.

This is a highly vulnerable cohort of patients.

One of our Facebook members shares their story:

1/

It is incredibly worrying that the staff and volunteers at the centre were not wearing masks, particularly when interacting with vulnerable patients. The failure to follow basic infection prevention and control measures places our most vulnerable community at risk.

2/

Conflicting information provided to the patient about mask-wearing is a concern. Patients should receive clear information about safety protocols where many people are in close contact.

Miscommunication is not only confusing, but it prevents people from making safe choices.

3/

Also, the lack of clarity regarding complaints is *unacceptable*. Patients have the right to voice their concerns.

It is shocking that even vaccination centers won't prioritise the safety of their high-risk patients.

4/

Authorities must take swift action to address our concerns and ensure that ALL patients receive the highest level of care and protection during the vaccination process.
