We write to provide you with an update on the COVID outbreak at Taylor House. There have been additional positive cases since the previous update, with Straughen 1 and Christie 2 now impacted.
Christie 1 is still a red zone; and some parts of Straughen 1 and Christie 2 are also red zones.
We are working closely with the local Public Health Unit, and the Outbreak Management Plan remains activated.
All staff are required to wear face shields and N95 masks when entering the building; and full PPE is required for all red zones.
VISITATIONS:
- For residents in Christie 1, Christie 2, and Straughen 1: visitations are restricted to partners in care or one nominated visitor, for compassionate and essential visits only.
- For residents in other areas of Taylor House Building (outside of Christie 1, Christie 2 and Straughen 1): normal visitation arrangements apply.
Please note:
- All visits must be pre-booked
- Upon arrival, visitors will be required to complete a RAT test
- Visitors are required to wear PPE for the duration of their visit
We thank you for your understanding and cooperation during this time, and will provide further updates as the situation evolves.
