McCormick Care Group – COVID-19 Update

Monday, July 13, 2020

This is a McCormick Care Group – COVID-19 Update for Monday, July 13, 2020.  We will continue to provide these updates every Monday, Wednesday and Friday as needed.

There are no probable or suspected cases of COVID-19 among our residents or staff at this time.

Outdoor visiting continues to go well with a few challenges faced with the heat wave last week.  Visits were shortened where appropriate to reduce exposure to the elements. The staff are aware of the assessed heat risk for your loved one prior to their visit and monitor conditions accordingly.  Unfortunately, the ministry directives do not permit indoor visiting at this time, so the change in weather over the weekend is most welcome!  If the emergency order is lifted by the province on July 15, 2020, there are some anticipated changes to the current visiting protocol.  We will provide this update as soon as it is confirmed.

Please contact the front reception desk between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., seven days a week, to book your visits and to verify and submit your test results.  You can reach Nita or the weekend staff by calling 519-432-2648, ext. 2300, or e-mailing admin.assistant@mccormickcare.ca.

Wishing you a wonderful week ahead.
