Written by Paul Graif on 12 June 2020
A mini powwow is on the list of events being planned for residents at the Kateri Memorial Hospital Centre (KMHC) to boost spirits as the COVID-19 pandemic presses on into month number four.
“We will be calling [families] to let you know. There’s a music event that will be organized and also a mini powwow for the residents and for family members,” said KMHC Director Lisa Westaway in a daily update on Friday.
Westaway said families will also be permitted to visit loved ones from a 15-foot distance starting next week.
“You’ll be getting calls to be able to book appointments to see your loved ones in a much closer way than you have been able to do up until now,” said Westaway.
Westaway said, as of last week, residents have been able to spend time outdoors in the shaded courtyard area. She said families will receive information by mail on Monday about new distancing protocols and plans for summer visitations.
