Hello families and friends of Rosemary Heights Seniors Village
We are very pleased to share there are no signs or symptoms of COVID-19 in any of our residents or staff here at Rosemary Heights Seniors Village. We continue to monitor all residents & staff daily for any symptoms. If your loved one is deemed symptomatic or tests positive, please know you will be contacted directly.
We have completed the testing/swabbing of all residents located on the 2nd floor and the results we have received thus far are all negative. We are waiting for only 3 more residents results and I will ensure to update you once we learn of these results.
We also are thrilled to report that all staff member’s results are negative!
We are still deemed as a low risk, and they are not declaring an official outbreak however we are on an enhanced monitoring outbreak until the morning of Dec 28th. We will be approaching the topic of upcoming Christmas with the MHO & PHN and will pray that they will lift our restrictions, however if they do not agree we will need to respect their decisions as they are thinking of our safety & the residents.
