NSW Health Minister praises Engadine aged home staff for identifying coronavirus case ​

NSW Health Minister Brad Hazzard (pictured) did not name the Engadine aged care facility, but praised staff for their proactive approach, which identified the case among its residents. 

“They were actually testing their residents proactively. That was how this resident was identified,” he said.

“So, I want to thank that aged care facility and say to other aged care facilities, ‘We would like you to do what this facility has done and others that are doing’.”

How many facilities have the procedures in place to test residents yet however?
