Legionella Testing in Sydney

Legionella species occur naturally in soil, seawater, rivers and lakes. As a result these species can and will colonise man-made water handling and storage systems. These systems generally provide ideal conditions of nutrition and temperature for the proliferation of Legionella species.

Sydney Legionella Testing

Aged care facilities provide vital support to the elderly and vulnerable in our community, ensuring their health and wellbeing. In recent years, the increasing number of outbreaks of Legionnaires’ disease has emphasized the importance of ensuring that such facilities are free from this potentially fatal bacteria. This case study aims to demonstrate the importance of regularly testing for legionella in aged care facilities and how this can help prevent outbreaks and protect the health of residents and staff.
