The West Parry Sound Health Centre is limiting items that can be dropped off for patients
(submitted by WPSHC)
In addition to the ‘no visitor’ policy now in place, West Parry Sound Health Centre is strictly limiting the items that can be dropped off for a patient.
A patient’s own items are limited to communication devices, hard surface items that can be wiped clean, such as cell phones, tablets, laptops, and charging devices.
If clothing is required for discharge, the person picking up the patient is asked to bring the clothing with them at time of discharge.
Items can only be dropped off inside the health centre’s first-floor entrance, weekdays only, between 10 a.m. and noon.
Anyone dropping off items at the health centre must be symptom-free and successfully pass screening questions.
Health centre staff are actively working with patients and families to support communication and virtual visits using technology and communication devices.
WPSHC is thankful for the support and cooperation we are receiving from patients, families, and the communities we are privileged to serve.
