Reminder – Personal Health Checks:

We would like to reiterate Provincial Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry’s recent message about the importance of paying close attention to how we are feeling, by doing our own daily personal health checks, and if we are feeling unwell to stay home and away from others.  If you have any symptoms, contact 811 or your health care provider to arrange for testing.  The health and safety of our residents and staff is our number one priority.Thank you for your support and understanding during this difficult time. We appreciate the continued encouragement of our amazing staff team at KinVillage.  Stay safe!
