We are pleased to confirm that CESPHN will be offering free fit testing for all GPs and practice nurses in our region. Bookings are now open.
Individual Appointments
GPs and practice nurses can use the existing Sydney Local Health District mask fit testing booking system to book individual appointments at either Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, Concord Hospital or Canterbury Hospital for mask fit testing services.
The online booking system will be updated to include a check box to identify as a GP or practice nurse; this question will also be asked by the mask fit tester. For the next month a special three hour evening slot will be available once per week for GPs and practice nurses to access.
RPA and Concord Hospital are open from 8.00am – 4.00pm Monday to Friday.
Canterbury is open from 8.00am – 4.00pm on Tuesday and Thursday.
Group Appointments
Fit testing services can be provided in the GP practice for group appointments provided there is a minimum of 20 people requiring mask fit testing. This may require practices to collaborate to ensure they meet minimum numbers.
GPs and practice nurses will be fitted on the following masks:
Ordering of masks
Masks will be supplied for fit testing however the GP practice will then need to purchase masks. Further information on purchasing masks will be provided on the day.
