To Kathy Kay: Oh my goodness! I did not know that residents have been confined at Muskoka Landing for 25 days with 46 positive cases amongst residents. Number of staff with Covid – who knows! Food arriving cold! I’ve searched everywhere for this information and cannot locate it. I do hope they were able to bring in support. What can we do to help?
That was quick! Excellent!
Is anyone checking on the folks at Muskoka Landing? Residents confined to their rooms for 25 days. 46 positive cases amongst residents. And however many staff. Food arrives cold because of staff needing to change PPE before entering each room, etc. So sad.
