Hello Everyone!

Unfortunately, Orchard Trail (2nd floor) remains in COVID-19 Outbreak. At this point the earliest it will re-open is December 27 2023. This date may need to extend depending on how the outbreak progresses.

This is our secure home area and poses significant challenges in trying to isolate those who are impacted.

Orchard Trail remains closed. Only Designated Essential Caregivers are permitted into this Home area. Residents are to stay in this Home area for the duration of this outbreak.

We have noted in this outbreak that residents symptoms in this outbreak are largely presenting as lethargy and/or change in behaviour.

If an essential caregiver is feeling differently in any way, please, stay home. Ensure you are taking every opportunity to hand sanitize your hands and your loved one's hands.

All persons entering the Orchard Trail Home area are required to wear an N95 mask while on the Home area that covers their mouth and nose.

There is no eating or drinking in this Home area by Essential Caregivers.

Residents often receive new articles of clothing over the holiday season. It is very important to ensure these are brought in, in a labelled bag and handed to a staff person on the Home area. This will ensure that the item goes directly to the laundry so that it can be labelled with the residents name. We really don't want to have anyone lose the new items they receive over the holidays.

Thank you for your ongoing support.

We wish you a wonderful Holiday Season,

Angela Malcolm RN
