Further to the communication sent last Friday 16 September, this message is to provide you with an update on the COVID outbreak at Taylor House.
Pleasingly, there have been no further positive cases. We are continuing to work with the local Public Health Unit (PHU). At this stage, Straughen 1 remains a Red Zone, and all other areas are Green.
All staff are required to wear face shields and N95 masks when entering the building; and full PPE is required for Red Zones.
There are no changes to the visitation arrangements communicated last week. We have included these again below for ease of reference:
VISITATIONS:
- For Residents in Straughen 1: visitations are restricted to partners in care or one nominated visitor, for compassionate and essential visits only.
- For Residents in all other areas of Taylor House Building: normal visitation arrangements apply.
Please note:
- All visits must be pre-booked
- Upon arrival, visitors will be required to complete a RAT test
- Visitors are required to wear PPE for the duration of their visit
Thank you for your ongoing support and cooperation. Further updates will be provided in due course.
