Another week of no new cases linked to the COVID-19 outbreak at the Yorkton Regional Health Centre.
Interim Director of Acute Care for the Yorkton area, Janna-Lea Yawney says they’re hopeful the 1st East and West inpatient medical units will be taken off the declared outbreak list by March 10.
She says the fact there is no new cases can be attributed to the measures they have in place.
“We have enhanced screening in the hospital, we have also the requirement for all staff and visitors to wear masks throughout the facility, perform hand hygiene upon entering and go through a series of screening questions,” Yawney explained.
