Dear Families and Representatives ,
We have recently confirmed two cases of Influenza A among our residents, which is now declared an outbreak in Wingham /Ashmore Wing. We are implementing immediate precautionary measures to protect all residents and staff.
Key Actions:
- Visitor Guidelines: We ask that you limit visitation. If you are unwell with fever, cough, sore throat, body aches and fatigue, it is advisable not to attend the care home until you are well.
- Mandatory Masks: All staff in Wingham/Ashmore Wing must wear surgical masks at all times until further notice.
- Hygiene Measures: Frequent handwashing and sanitizer use are essential for all visitors entering and leaving the wing.
- PPE Use: Visitors must wear appropriate protective gear when interacting with positive resident.
We appreciate your cooperation in ensuring the safety of our community. Please reach out with any questions.
Thank you for your attention to this matter and for your continued commitment to the health and safety of our residents and staff.
