Since our last update, we’re pleased to share that the local Public Health Unit has now advised us that we can start the de-isolation process. All residents that have returned negative COVID results can come out of their rooms, however the main dinning and common areas remain in lockdown until the remaining residents testing positive return a negative result.
As a reminder, we have restricted visitation to one nominated ‘partner-in-care’ visitor per resident to all areas of Whiddon Belmont at this time (for compassionate or essential visits only). These visits must be pre-booked and can only be booked in on weekdays at this time.
All visitors are required to undertake rapid antigen testing as a condition of entry to Whiddon Belmont and will be asked to wear an N95 mask, gown and face shield, which will be provided upon entry to the home.
We thank you for your understanding and support, and will provide a further update once we know more.
