Regional Victoria was put back into COVID-19 lockdown at 1pm today (August 21, 2021).
Bendigo Community Health Services will operate as an 'essential service' through this lockdown period.
We are offering Pfizer COVID-19 vaccinations for people aged 40 to 59, frontline workers or from eligible community groups. To book an appointment call 5406 1200 or visit our online booking system to see available appointments click here
If you have a face-to-face appointment for our medical practice, Women's Health Clinic, Men's Health Clinic or Sexual Health Clinic this will go ahead but could change to Telehealth due to the lockdown conditions on our staff.
If you have an appointment with BCHS you will get a call from one of our staff if this is changing to Telehealth. If you don't hear from us or have any questions please call 5406 1200 during business hours.
Our Nova House, pharmacotherapy and Needle Syringe Program will operate as normal.
Our HeadtoHelp Hub will offer only phone and online support until the lockdown has finished. Appointments should still be made by calling 1800 595 212.
headspace Bendigo will operate on a reduced service. Please call 5406 1400 if you have any questions.
All Bendigo Community Health Services sites follow strict Coronavirus precautions for the safety of our clients and staff.
We ask for you help in allowing us to keep a safe environment by when you visit one of our sites wearing a mask, sanitising your hands, scanning the QR code when you arrive and do the screening questions with one of our Client Services staff. This all takes a bit of time we know so we ask for patience and support when dealing with our staff.
Please call our Client Services staff on 5406 1200 during business hours if you have any questions.
We ask for your support and patience as all clients and visitors to our sites will need to wear a mask unless you have a medical exemption and provide contact tracing information.
