Hello Family Members & Guildford Seniors Village Community,
We strive for a new balance in continued protocols, family comfort and peace, and ensuring residence thrives in good health. We encourage all to continue with best practises in hand washing, mask wearing, social distancing and education awareness, including self-care as we approach flu season and amongst Covid 19 infection control.
Guildford Seniors Village continues to sustain a healthy community. As we approach flu season, Nurses will be reaching out to families regarding vaccination consents, as vaccines will be ordered soon for residents.
Protocols
Strict compliance measures to all protocols remain unchanged in Guildford Seniors Village, following the direction of our public health officials, including preventative & enhanced infection control, monitoring residents’ & staffs’ health closely, and visitor restrictions.
Deliveries: kindly press the button at the speaker (to your left) to inform our team if you’ve delivered an item in the lobby vestibule. Please label your delivery with resident name, and we will ensure sanitizing and delivery to loved one. For resident safety, kindly refrain from passing items via windows as we must sanitize all items and ensure no risk to community (no sharps; infection control & food items due to specialty diets, texture). Thank you.
