MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR

Hello Everyone!

Today we have went into COVID-19 Outbreak on our Cedar Grove home area located on the second floor.

All staff on Cedar Grove are wearing N-95 masks as well as eye protection.

Only Designated Essential Caregivers are permitted on Cedar Grove during the outbreak. N-95 masks are at the entrance to Cedar Grove. There are also masks with face shields that you can apply over your N-95 mask, should you wish to also have eye protection. Please ensure to apply before entering the Home area.

For those entering a residents room that is on isolation, you will need to put on a gown and gloves as well which are available just outside the residents room.

If an essential caregiver is feeling differently in any way, please, stay home. If you have experienced symptoms yourself, please postpone your visit. Ensure you are taking every opportunity to hand sanitize your hands and your loved one's hands. If your hands are visibly soiled, soap and water plus friction are the preferred options.

Hand washing remains incredibly important!!

Have a great day,

Angela Malcolm RN
