COVID UPDATE – FEBRUARY 16 – PAVILION

/in ,

Hello Pavilion Tenants:

Public Health (PH) has communicated with Menno Place that there is NO ISOLATION PERIOD required for tenants of Pavilion! Registered Visitor visits may resume.

Public Health recommendations:

  • As there was no identified exposure to COVID for the other tenants and staff in the facility, no PH follow up is required for this group.
  • PH will follow up the home health workers as per their guidelines.
  • Pavilion tenants should call 811 and speak to a nurse if they are symptomatic for COVID (fever, runny nose, loss of taste or smell, etc.)
  • Continue to implement all infection protocols, including masks, social distancing and hand hygiene. Continue enhanced cleaning.
  • The 18 residents cared for by the Home Health staff would be considered contacts of contacts and not require PH follow up.

With this information, effective immediately the isolation period is complete. Registered Visitors may return to Pavilion.

If you have any symptoms of Covid, please call 811 and speak to a Nurse, let them know your symptoms. The Nurse will let you know if you need to have a Covid swab test or not.  Please ask your Registered Visitor to take you to the swabbing site. If you are unable to get to the swabbing site please let the 811 nurse know and she will arrange a swab for you in your apartment.

Blessings to you,

Cheryl Dawes, Manager of Community Enrichment – 604.851.4020
