Some positive news for residents of long-term care homes.
Residents will be able to have outdoor gatherings with family members starting tomorrow.
Visitors will need to follow a few public health restrictions if they decide to see their loved ones.
Only two visitors per resident are allowed at one time, in addition to essential caregivers.
Children under two years old won't count towards the visitor maximum.
Visitors will also need to wear a mask, submit to a health screening, and are advised not to enter facilities.
Homes without outdoor spaces can have visits in the general vicinity of the home.
This announcement comes after the province released it's three-step re-opening plan yesterday, beginning with outdoor activities.
