COVID-19:  Campus Update

New Unionville Home Society’s top priority is the health and safety of all who work, live and visit on our campus of care.

Following direction from the Ministry of Long Term Care,  we have adopted a more rigorous process to address the risks facing our organization. We have implemented enhanced precautions to ensure that anyone who screens positive, who may have been in contact with someone who has tested positive or who are experiencing any symptoms should not enter the Home.

Union Villa LTC is currently on lockdown similar to how we handle outbreaks.  Only essential visitors will be permitted in the Home. The Ministry is identifying essential visitors as those who have a resident who is dying or very ill. No other visitors should be permitted to enter these premises, instead they should be asked to keep in touch with loved ones by phone or other technologies, as available.

Please contact Eli Vega, Director of Care at 905-477-2822 ext. 4246 for more information. The Home will also be limiting recreation activities and programs in line with provincial advice.

Our management team continues to monitor government and Public Health advice and direction and will update you with changes or adjustments at that time.

The Adult Day Program and all programs at the Unionville Community Centre for Seniors  are cancelled until further notice.

Thank you,

Abby Katz Starr, CEO                                      Julie Horne, Interim Administrator

Eli Vega, Director of Care                               Dr. Barry Struss, Medical Director
