Caring for COVID positive patients in the community - An indepth look at the COVID positive care pathway pilot codesigned with The Royal Melbourne Hospital, CoHealth and NWMPHN

Join your peers in this informative webinar as we outline the RMH and COHealth COVID positive care pathway pilot

A new COVID-19 positive care pathway will be trialled in the inner north west region of Melbourne, which supports continuity of care with patients’ usual general practice.

The pathway has been co-designed with Royal Melbourne Hospital (RMH), cohealth, NWMPHN and the Victorian Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), supported by PwC. GPs with experience supporting residents of the public housing towers in Flemington and North Melbourne have informed its development. 

The pathway is designed to provide safe, high quality care, including community-based care for low risk COVID-19 positive patients, with escalation mechanisms to higher levels of care if required.  

Speakers:
Clinical Leads for the model - Medical epidemiologist and cohealth GP, Dr Nicole Allard, and Respiratory and sleep physician, Dr Alistair Miller  will host the forum and provide insight, tips and advice on how to manage and treat your COVID positive patients through best practice, and will be available for questions
