COVID-19 Health and Safety Protocols
At Green Gables Guest House, we have put The COVID-19 Protocols & Specific Health Procedures
in place to ensure the safety & health of all our employees and our guests.
On a daily basis, we are working to ensure that we meet the latest guidance
on hygiene and cleaning, including:
Helpline Numbers to contact: The NICD Hotline is available to all staff & guests. Should anyone show symptoms after travelling from a local "hotspot" area or country, we have an "isolation room" set aside,
"The Pottery" away from the main guest house, with all the necessary safety, comforts & amenities required.
The South African Department of Health advises first phoning the National Institute of Communicable Diseases (NICD) helpline, rather instead of going immediately to medical facility, to prevent further contamination.
The NICD Hotline Contact Number: 080002 9999
In the event of a suspected COVID-19 case we will also contact an appointed medical professional,
to assess your symptoms & severity.
There are 2 accredited testing stations within range of Green Gables Guest House.
In the case of an emergency & immediate hospitalisation is required, Green Gables Guest House is close to 2 private clinics, Sunninghill Clinic which is 1.9 km away, & Mediclinic Morningside is 4.6 km from our Guest House.
At Green Gables Guest House, our guests and staff's health & safety is of paramount importance.
Always.
