The service will first be open to women who had their appointments cancelled during the suspension period.
However, those clients are asked to wait until they are contacted by BreastScreen NSW before making an appointment.
ALSO MAKING NEWS:
To keep clients safe, there will be a limited number of people in the clinic and equipment will be frequently cleaned.
People will also be required to attend the appointment alone and only enter the clinic five minutes before their scheduled time.
BreastScreen NSW also wanted to thank clients for their patience while all of the screening clinics across the state were reopened.
Anyone with questions, or who requires support, should contact BreastScreen NSW on 13 20 50.
