The Brave Bunch - Our new kids program
Having a pathology test can be a scary thought for kids and adults alike.
To ease any fears we have enlisted the help of Waffles the Wombat and his kooky mates, The Brave Bunch.
They are front and center of a new kids website that packs together plenty of useful information for parents with awesome activities and videos for kids.
One video follows Waffles going for a COVD-19 test after he develops the sniffles.
These small but powerful furry and feathery heroes like nothing better than to help kids be brave.
COVID car collections
COVID car collections (in-car swab collections) are available at selected SNP collection centres and locations.
Drive-up and drive-thru collection services are available.

Negative COVID-19 SMS service now available
SNP has implemented an SMS notification service* to send negative COVID-19 results directly to patients. This service is in addition to the already established report delivery process for referring and copy-to doctors.
The SMS will advise the patient to continue to follow any quarantine directive in place and to contact their referring medical practitioner for further assistance and advice.
The COVID-19 negative SMS notification system operates from 8 am to 8 pm each day. Results released outside these hours will be sent the following day.
*Service available when the referring practitioner has provided a mobile contact number for the patient.
