As a licensee of the RHRA, Cardinal Place is required to plan ahead for all kinds of catastrophic situations. This pandemic is no different.
Thanks to all our efforts, COVID-19 HAS NOT INFECTED Cardinal Place.
Currently, our Members enjoy meals and activities together and, in our bubble, wearing a mask is optional for a Member. Cardinal Place staff must wear a mask when in the building and must remain at least 2 metres apart when not wearing a mask like when eating on a break. Of course regular hand washing and hand disinfecting is an ongoing habit. Twice a day our staff disinfects all the hallway touch surfaces like door handles and elevator buttons. The staff also disinfects the salt, pepper, sugar and sweetener containers and tables and chair arms between meals.
By order of the Province, we staff the front door with a “Porter” seven days a week from 10 a.m. till 8 p.m. Visitors and returning Members are actively screened. Visitors who fail screening will not be permitted to enter. Members who fail screening will be carefully escorted to their rooms to be isolated and tested for COVID-19.
Please take this pandemic seriously and alter your personal habits toward safety and the protection of others.
IF COVID-19 were to break out, here this is what we would do:
We ask for your understanding during this difficult time.
Our staff work only at Cardinal Place and make personal sacrifices in their home lives to ensure they are not exposed to the coronavirus.
The Cardinal Place Care Team did all the extra work formerly done by government-funded outside agencies during the months of April through mid-July. We have now arranged with some of those agencies to supply dedicated workers who will work only at Cardinal Place. These measures are to prevent the spread of COVID-19 from one seniors' home to others.
We've added a cook, busboys, cleaners, Personal Support Workers (PSW) and Registered Practical Nurses (RPN) to our staff. Doubling up our staff ensures we are covered if someone gets sick.
