Designated caregivers may continue to enter long-term care homes.<\/li><li>Day absences for all residents for social purposes will be paused.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe know that long-term care residents face an increased risk of COVID-19. Given the high community infection rates we\u2019re seeing with the Omicron variant, the time for more action is now,\u201d said Rod Phillips, Minister of Long-Term Care. \u201cIn addition to the steps we\u2019ve already taken, these new temporary measures will help keep residents safe and help critical staff remain on the job.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The government will closely monitor the situation in long-term care homes and continue to adjust measures as necessary to keep residents and staff safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier this month, the government put in place policies in long-term care homes designed to optimize safety for residents and staff, including the requirement that all general visitors need to be fully vaccinated to enter a home. The province is also requiring all staff caring for a resident with a confirmed or suspected case of COVID-19 to wear a fit-tested, seal-checked N95 respirator. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the high transmissibility of the Omicron variant will likely mean staff being exposed to or contracting COVID-19 in the community and more outbreaks in long-term care homes. This means that it is imperative to keep COVID-19 out of homes wherever possible and prevent spread within homes, with the most important objective being the prevention of severe outcomes for residents and staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI understand that these new, temporary measures will impact residents\u2019 ability to have close contact with many of their friends and family members,\u201d said Minister Phillips. \u201cWe must remain vigilant against the Omicron variant to protect long-term care residents and staff.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe know these measures are difficult for residents and families, but we must stand strong to protect our most vulnerable, which includes residents of long-term care homes,\u201d said Dr. Kieran Moore, Chief Medical Officer of Health. \u201cI encourage everyone to get their booster shot as soon as possible so we can keep everyone safe with the added layer of protection that the vaccine provides.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The COVID-19 vaccine remains the single best protection against COVID-19 and variants. Every eligible Ontarian is strongly recommended to get vaccinated or receive their booster as soon as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sign up <a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/dont-miss-out-on-doppler\/\"><u>here<\/u><\/a> to receive our email digest with links to our most recent stories.<br \/>\nLocal news in your inbox so you don&#8217;t miss anything!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"background: #5cb85c url('https:\/\/d1iczxrky3cnb2.cloudfront.net\/red_logo.png') no-repeat 37px; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; padding: 15px 38px; padding-left: 75px; -webkit-border-radius: 2px; -moz-border-radius: 2px; border-radius: 2px; box-shadow: 0 1px 0 0 #1f5a89; text-shadow: 0 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);\" href=\"https:\/\/donorbox.org\/support-huntsville-doppler\">Click here to support local news<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45657\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A message from the Ontario government In response to the evolving Omicron situation, the Ontario government, in consultation with the chief Medical Officer of Health, is taking further actions to [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":72680,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-107366","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.8 -
