Infection Prevention and Control

• The Provincial Health Officer orders will be amended to require assisted living and long-term care sites to maintain and provide public health with the names and Personal Health Numbers of residents, staff, personal service providers and volunteers. Public Health will then link this to their central registry to determine vaccination status, which will be provided to the site.

Social Distancing Guidelines:

The safety of our residents, staff and visitors will continue to be a priority for everyone at Langley Lodge. With that said and the fact that social distancing is still required, certain areas of the Lodge will have limits on the number of people that can gather in the specific areas. This will include areas such as home area garden patios (decks), bistro, courtyard, and the resident dining rooms. The Resident’s dining rooms are already at capacity with residents.  If you would like to assist a loved one with their meal, please inform the nurse on the floor and the meal can occur in the resident’s room.

We thank you for your ongoing support.
