To all Family Members:

As we enter into our first weekend as a COVID free building, the Dufferin Care Center staff want to extend our best wishes to all our families. While we are COVID free, we are still following the mandate of no visitors to our building. We are continuing with our FACETIME appointments. Please reach out to mvickers@retirementconcepts.com or call 604-552-1166 ext 308 to schedule a FACETIME visit with your loved one.

Status Update

The status of our residents and staff is unchanged. Close monitoring of all residents continues.

All staff will continue to be screened as they enter the building. They remain cohorted to their respective floors which means that 1st and 2nd floor staff enter the building through separate entries.All staff continue to wear masks and goggles while they are on resident units.

Communication

Please refer to our daily updates on the Retirement Concepts Website.

If you have questions related to a specific resident, please address those matters to: info@retirementconcepts.com

As you might expect, staff are extremely busy but we will respond as quickly as possible.
