PPE for the NT AOD Sector: How To
The Association of Alcohol and other Drug Agencies NT (AADANT) recognises the important and complex work the NT AOD treatment sector carries out. With the addition of highly infectious COVID-19 and its variants, your work is more complicated. Please see advice on COVID-19 in residential centres from the Queensland Network of Alcohol and other Drug Agencies.
AADANT has put together some information below on donning and doffing personal protective equipment (PPE) when working with clients who may be covid-positive.
If your organisation is struggling to source PPE, please get in touch with AADANT if you have already spoken to your funders. AADANT is here to provide up to date information, advice and support to your organisations throughout the year including challenges relating to COVID-19.
Please see the video below from the Northern Territory Government on donning and doffing PPE:
