June third the Saskatchewan government implemented updated guidelines for Family Member/Support Person presence.

One change that is currently being implemented is that Outdoor Visitation can occur at Long Term Care Facilities.

The Shaunavon Long Term Care Facility, on their Facebook page, announced some general guidelines for Outdoor  Visitation there.

Visits should be booked between one and four p.m. in advance, and visitors are asked to ring the door bell and wait for staff to meet you.

Screening for visitors can be done in advance while booking the visit, or at the door through the regular screening process.

Family Members/Support Persons will be asked to wear a mask.

Family Members/Support Persons are required to maintain a two metre physical distance at all times during their visit.

Outdoor visits can include more than one visitor at a time provided that physical distancing can be maintained.
