McCormick Care Group – COVID-19 Update

Saturday, May 21, 2022

This is a McCormick Care Group update for Saturday, May 21, 2022.

We regret to inform you that we have had additional residents test positive for COVID-19 and currently have six positive resident cases on Oak Avenue.  If your loved one has tested positive you would have received a phone call directly from the home.

At this time, only residents who have tested positive or are table mates of the positive residents need to be isolated to their rooms as per the health unit.

Staff and approved essential caregivers entering into resident isolation rooms must wear full droplet/ contact precautions.

Any staff who have worked on Oak Avenue since Wednesday must report to the home to receive a PCR test.  Arlene will be on site until 4:30pm today if you are able to report to the home.

Results from Memory Lane have returned with the exception of two and all have been negative.

We ask for your ongoing diligence in following public health measures and monitoring yourself for signs and symptoms of COVID-19.

Thank you for your understanding. If you have any questions, please contact Arlene MacDonald, infection control manager, at 519-432-2648, ext. 2463 or amacdonald@mccormickcare.ca.

Updates will be shared as more information becomes available.
