Click here COVID-19 Update for residents & families of Calvary St JudesDate: 25 January 2022 Dear Resident and Family Member, I am writing to let you know that site wide testing is underway today. Given the ongoing high demand for community testing, we are unable confirm a timeframe for when we will receive all results. As the results come to hand, we will continue to liaise closely with the Public Health Unit, regarding the next steps, testing regime and when it is safe to lift the current restrictions on residents’ movement or re-open the home. In the meantime, the home remains closed for general visitation (except for end of life/ compassionate visits). Please talk with care staff to make specific arrangements. The residents remain cared for in their rooms. We understand that this is a difficult time for our residents and families, and we thank you for your continued support. Please contact the home if you wish to book a video call with your loved one via our video call service or if you have any concerns. Calvary will update you again as soon as any information becomes available. We kindly request that you limit your contact with the home due to the increased workload and while staff are focused on caring for the residents. Thank you again for your continued understanding at this challenging time.
