McCormick Care Group – COVID-19 Update

Saturday, December 11, 2021

This is a McCormick Care Group – COVID-19 Update for Saturday, December 11, 2021.  

We have just received notification that a staff member has tested positive for COVID-19.  I have been in communication with the health unit this evening and the health unit’s investigation shows that there is a high probability that the staff member who tested positive may have been working during the infection’s incubation period.

At this time, only the residents this staff member was working with directly will have to be isolated and undergo PCR testing.  If your loved one has possibly been exposed, you will be contacted directly by the nurse.

Unfortunately, as a result of the positive COVID-19 result, out of an abundance of caution, the home is going to cancel the Jingle and Mingle event scheduled for tomorrow, Sunday, December 12, 2021.  The residents will still receive the special treats prepared.  If you have paid for the event, we will be in touch to arrange reimbursement.

Updates will be provided as information becomes available or changes.

We apologize for any inconvenience caused.  We remain committed to keeping the residents, families and staff safe.

Thank you for your understanding,

Tanya Pol,
Administrator
