One outbreak over, as another is declared.

Wexford Creek long-term care home in Nanaimo is the latest location of a COVID-19 outbreak. It’s contained within the first floor of the home for now, with four cases in residents as confirmed by PCR testing.

The site continues to allow essential and single designated visitors, but they have limited staff movements, put a stop to group dining and activities, and enhanced cleaning measures.

Island Health says families are being notified of the outbreak, and they’re ready to respond to any questions that families, staff, or patients may have.
