Nicole Fahey, whose 76-year-old grandmother Ann Fahey died after contracting COVID-19 at Newmarch House, blasted the nursing home for their lack of care and compassion. Ms Fahey said her grandmother was only taken to hospital after she inundated the media with her family's heartbreaking story. 'Her lungs were completely ravaged and damaged by COVID to the point where they weren't working either,' Ms Fahey said. Three days before Ms Bacon died, Ms Watson was allowed to visit her mother inside the home. Anglicare must remain vigilant in screening and infection control at Newmarch House, and across all our other aged care homes.'
