—————–
The following memo was distributed to Pavilion residents on Sunday afternoon, Nov 7:
Pavilion residents will be tested for COVID this Tuesday, November 9th
Testing will take place between 2:30-4:00pm.
Public health has informed us that ALL Pavilion residents need to be tested for COVID. Please ensure that you are in your suites on Tuesday afternoon.
Beginning at approximately 2:30pm, a mobile testing team will go door-to-door in the building and test you for COVID. A Menno Place staff member will accompany the team as they come to your door to test you. Please wait in your suite.
You will have 2 options for how to get tested.
- One option is a nasal swab.
- The other option is a gargle test (see attached for more details). In order to have the gargle test, you must not eat or drink anything for at least 1 hour before your test.
Results are typically available within 24-48 hours. Results will determine next steps.
It is imperative that you get tested. The entire building is impacted by this public health order. (If you aren’t home on Tuesday afternoon, you need to make arrangements to go to the community testing centre and get tested on Tuesday.)
As a reminder, all the details from yesterday’s memo about enhanced monitoring still apply. But to be very clear, if you are on droplet precautions, you MUST stay in your suite. This is communicated to you directly by Menno Place staff. An isolation cart is placed at your door. Please note that public health has placed Suites 201-214 on droplet precautions effective immediately.
Contact Dan Janzen at 604-851-1350 with any questions.
Thank you.
