Warragul respiratory clinic

The Australian Department of Health has funded 100 private practice respiratory clinics across Australia to provide dedicated services to people with mild to moderate COVID-19 symptoms.

Respiratory Clinics assess, test and diagnose respiratory cases, including COVID-19, influenza and pneumonia.

Central Clinic has been working closely with Primary Health Network (PHN) to establish a Respiratory Clinic in Warragul.

Warragul Specialist Centre was chosen as the dedicated premises after meeting clear criteria with arrangements to safely manage infection control.

Warragul Specialist Centre will be staffed from Monday to Friday by a medical team comprising of doctors and nurses from Central Clinic and other local clinics, who will be supported by receptionists, cleaners and security personnel.

The importance of testing

Continued testing for COVID-19 is more important than ever as government restrictions are easing across Gippsland.

We need to prevent a second wave of the coronavirus pandemic. Testing for coronavirus is one of the most important tools we have in this fight against the pandemic. It is helping our health professionals to monitor and control the spread of the virus and keep our community safe.

If you are experiencing any mild respiratory symptoms at all, such as such as headache, cough, muscle pain, stuffy nose, fatigue, nausea, vomiting or diarrhoea, you need to get tested.

While our community of Baw Baw has done a remarkable job over the past few months, we cannot think the threat has passed. You can keep your community with a simple test.
