At-Home Monitoring System
Covid Care Kit Australia has been designed to assist you in choosing how to manage your Covid 19 symptoms at home. The kit does not require internet access, making it suitable for use by the entire community. In order to detect Covid 19, the Covid Care Kit uses it's Rapid Antigen Tests, its Pulse Oximeter to monitor and record SpO2 (the saturation of oxygen carried in your red blood cells), a digital thermometer to check your temperature and a Daily Symptoms Diary to help you keep track of all your readings.

Digital Thermometer
Rapid Antigen Test
Rapid Antigen Tests are included in the kit. If your result is positive, we recommend a PCR test for confirmation and isolating until the results have been received. If the PCR test returns positive, follow the instructions in the Covid Care Kit Australia Home Care Monitoring Guide. Commence recording your Sp02 (oximeter) reading, temperature reading and physical symptoms on Day 1 in the Daily Symptoms Diary, parts 1 & 2.
Protecting Australian families and giving communities peace of mind
Testing positive for Covid is stress provoking for anyone. Using your At-Home Covid Care Kit to monitor your SpO2, temperature and symptoms will help you decide (i) if you can safely stay at home throughout your recovery (ii) if you need to call the Covid Hotline or (iii) if you need to call an ambulance to go to hospital.
At-Home Covid Care Kit plays an important role supporting the Australian Health Care system.
