Dear Families, Friends & Representatives,
Please be advised that in addition to the one resident who tested positive over the weekend, we have had an additional two residents test positive to COVID today. The family of the residents have been contacted and we are working closely with the Public Health Unit to manage the situation.
Please note, visiting may still occur however, we ask you refrain from visiting if you are feeling unwell or showing any signs of cold and flu symptoms. The health of our residents and employees is our upmost priority.
For now, the following precautions are still in place at our care home, including:
-
- Rapid Antigen Tests (RATs) are encouraged by all employees and visitors prior to entry.
- N95 Masks and Full PPE are to be worn
- Regular handwashing and use of hand sanitisers are strongly encouraged. Hand sanitizing stations are available throughout the care home.
- Maintain appropriate social distancing whenever possible.
- Visits should be conducted in resident rooms or on balconies.
We will provide a further update if anything changes.
