General practice and other primary health service providers

COVID-19 Safety Plans and COVID Safe registration

Having a COVID-19 Safety Plan in place will help minimise risk of transmission of COVID-19 on your premises.

General practices and other primary health service providers should also consider the benefits of registering as COVID Safe.

Complete the plan in consultation with your staff, then share it with them.

Keep your plan up to date

You may need to update the plan in the future, as restrictions and advice changes.

You will need to have an up to date plan at your premises at all times and be able to show it to an authorised officer if requested.

Your COVID-19 Safety Plan

You can either:

• use the provided COVID-19 Safety Plan to address the checklist of matters for general practice and other primary health service providers
• keep using your existing plan, if you have one, after making sure it includes all the items in the provided COVID-19 Safety Plan.

Complete a COVID-19 Safety Plan

Things to note:

• If you complete the plan online it will take 30 to 45 minutes and must be completed in one session.
• You may need to review current NSW Health guidance on the following areas before completing your plan:
  • physical distancing
  • four square metre rule
  • face masks
  • self-isolation and quarantine
