Just wanted to ensure everyone saw the announcement yesterday that as of Monday, February 5th, 2024, masks will be required in all hospitals and health care facilities including personal care and long-term care homes. This includes all clients and visitors to the areas.
The temporary measure is being put in place due to an increase in respiratory illness in the community. The masking guidelines will be re-evaluated on March 31.
We are recommending that all RMT”s follow this guideline and mask up to protect yourself, your clients and your families.
I have attached the link below for your reference.
