*New Visiting Guidelines
Alert Status: Ontario has developed a risk-based response system to continue to balance retirement home resident and staff safety with well-being. For the retirement homes sector, the Ontario government has established elevated alert areas based on the degree of COVID-19 transmission in a community and infection spread within the retirement homes. Link found below.
Based on a region’s alert status, there are amendments to the Visitation policies that must be adhered to. We have developed an at–a–glance chart to help determine the requirements based on alert status level. Please click on the button to the right to access this chart.
Directive #3: The Chief Medical Officer of Health has updated Directive #3 which outlines required precautions and procedures, as well as the Visitor Policy Guidelines for Retirement Homes. Link found below.
