Our Response to COVID-19

Safe and Secure, and getting back to normal….

In the not-too-distant future 2022 will be upon us. The Covid 19 Pandemic continues to travel through time with us, reinforcing the need to remain vigilant.

Even though we are not nearly as far from the heights of this pandemic as we would like to be, we are seeing glimmers of hope and fun and smiling (yet masked) faces.

Our residences are hearing music again. We are able to sit together over meals and join up for activities, services and visits. Masks are ever present in the halls but fear and isolation are no longer in control.

Our teams have worked tirelessly and continue to do so in every area of every home. Our residents are happy to be back together, interacting with each other and the team and feeling safe in their home.

Each of our homes have been contacted to host booster shots as one more level in their frontline of protection. Along with this, we are seeing more and more people choose vaccination as one of the best options to protect self and those we serve.

Greenwood Retirement Residences continue to adhere to the direction of our local Public Health Units, as well as our Associations and Regulators. The Ministry of Seniors and Accessibility continue to support our homes by providing direction regarding mandatory policies and testing processes.

Even though public guidelines are loosening we remain vigilant in our continuing efforts to build welcoming, caring, engaging and safe communities.

Our residents are resilient.

Our homes are rebounding.

Our teams are full of determination and GRIT!
