ONTARIO - Starting today, long-term care home residents in Ontario can have outdoor visits with a maximum of 10 people at one time.
The loosened restrictions were announced last week and officially take effect today.
This means that indoor visits with two caregivers and two general visitors are now allowed.
Residents can also access personal care services.
There is no longer a limit on the number of people who can be designated as a caregiver by a resident or their substitute decision-maker.
Restrictions will be further eased when Ontario enters Step Three of the re-opening plan.
These changes are expected to include removing the limits on the number of visitors, permitting buffet and family style dining, and allowing all residents to go on absences regardless of immunization status.
