COVID-19 resources

NARI is concerned for the wellbeing of older Australians during the COVID-19 pandemic.

People aged 70 years and over are at greater risk of more serious illness if they are infected with COVID-19. And it is likely they will have to self-isolate for longer than younger people.

For this reason, we’ve developed resources and information for older people and those who work with them.
