Coronavirus Updates

Where to get tested: YDHS provides symptomatic COVID–19 Testing. If you have symptoms and require a COVID-19 test please phone our urgent care department on (03) 51820 222 and our friendly staff will provide you with instructions on how to get tested at YDHS.

After your test: return home immediately & wait for your test results. Do not go to work or go out shopping, stay at home. It usually takes 2 days for your results to be returned to you. If you are worried your results are taking too long you can call a service provider for more information. Others in your house do not need to self-isolate unless they are also waiting for a coronavirus (COVID-19) test result.

YDHS is actively preparing for the pandemic of coronavirus. We all need to take responsible measures to protect the sick, vulnerable and elderly from the threat of this disease. Yarram & District Health Service, including St Elmo’s nursing home and Crossley House Hostel are putting in place a social distancing policy in line with guidelines from the Victorian Government.Until further notice all non-essential services and activities such as Volunteers, Planned Activity Group, Physiotherapy Groups, Work experience placements, school visits and Pastoral services have been cancelled.


These restrictions will be reviewed regularly and amended as needed on the advice of the chief medical officer at the Department of Health and Human Services.We must work together to protect the vulnerable and your cooperation with these restrictions is important. If you begin to feel unwell and develop a fever or shortness of breath, a cough or respiratory illness, you should call the dedicated hotline on 1800 675 398 for advice. This number is staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You can find further information on Coronavirus at the following website;
