As we spend more time indoors, it’s essential to protect ourselves and others from respiratory illnesses by getting vaccinated and staying home when we ar
e unwell. It’s also important to be fire safe and prepare our homes in case of an emergency.
We have developed a communication toolkit to help you share important information about staying healthy and safe this winter.
The toolkit contains information and easy-to-share resources, including Aboriginal and translated assets on topics such as:
- Protection from respiratory illnesses
- Vaccination awareness
- Free, instant health advice this winter
- Being fire safe by checking smoke alarms, having an escape plan, and charging lithium-ion batteries safely
- Carbon monoxide poisoning – never use barbecues or outdoor heaters inside
- Product safety during the cooler weather.
