About COVID-19 and getting tested

COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by a strain of coronavirus. It causes cold and flu-like symptoms and can affect your lungs and airways. The long-term impacts of the disease are not yet known, because it’s a new disease and we are still learning about it.

Mental health

Many aspects of life are affected by a pandemic. Most people have little experience of an event like COVID-19 and it can be quite overwhelming when your health, social life, employment, and financial situation are impacted. While it’s normal to feel anxious or uncertain during this time, you can seek help if these feelings start to affect your everyday functioning.

What is HealthPathways?
HealthPathways is a web-based, location specific information portal designed by clinicians to help you navigate your patient through the primary, tertiary, and community healthcare systems. Each pathway is evidence-based and helps you identify a streamlined care plan and referral process, whilst reserving clinical autonomy and patient preference.

HealthPathways aims to:

  • encourage collaboration
  • improve the health experience
  • identify appropriate referral pathways
  • ensure correct pre-referral tests are completed
  • reduce the time patients spend on waiting lists
  • enhance the quality of referrals to minimise rejection
  • enhance clinical knowledge and promote best practice
  • ensure the right care, in the right place, at the right time.
