Only one healthy visitor at a time is allowed per patient. In addition to the temperature check and mask, visitors are required to fill out a questionnaire and may need to don additional personal protective equipment (PPE).
Visitors must wash their hands before entering or leaving the facility, and before entering or leaving the patient’s room.
Permitted visitors for compassionate reasons include spouses, common-law spouses, children, stepchildren, parents, grandparents, grandchildren, siblings and support people with whom the patient is close.
