Protecting your health and safety
As always, ensuring your health and safety is our top priority and we wanted to share the steps we are taking to reduce the risk of community transmission of the COVID-19 virus.
What we are doing:
- All Aus-Ability WA employees are fully vaccinated
- Providing Zoom meetings as an alternative option to face-to-face appointments OR in the event that you or your coordinator are required to isolate.
For the most up to date information and guidelines, visit the WA State Government website or the Department of Health website.
During these unprecedented times, the health and safety of our community is our priority.
