Posted: 2024-08-20 07:37:36 By: thebay

Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare has declared another COVID-19 outbreak, this time at the South Wing of the HMDH Site following six confirmed cases. In response, several protective measures have been put in place in consultation with the Simcoe Muskoka District Health Unit.

Visitation is restricted to one essential caregiver per patient, with general visitors banned. Essential caregivers must follow strict PPE guidelines. Group activities within the South Wing are suspended, and all transfers and procedures now follow enhanced PPE protocols, including masks, eye protection, gowns, and gloves.

Last week, the MAHC advised of an outbreak at the Bracebridge site.
