Haldimand County has been actively monitoring the spread of COVID-19 in partnership with the Haldimand-Norfolk Health Unit. Though there are currently no reported cases in Haldimand and the risk to residents – as defined by the Province – remains low, staff are prepared to respond if required and continue to take steps to protect community health and safety.

Though the Haldimand-Norfolk Health Unit is the lead agency in pandemic situations, Haldimand County has its own supporting pandemic plan that outlines operational contingency plans, response logistics & related matters. Should COVID-19 become an issue in Haldimand County, plans are in place to respond & mitigate adverse impacts.

As a precautionary measure, all visitors to Grandview Lodge will be screened for symptoms prior to entry – as mandated by the Ministry of Long Term Care. Similarly, notices have been posted at municipal facility entrances requesting that residents refrain from entering if they are symptomatic.

Updates related to COVID-19 will be shared by Haldimand County and its healthcare partners as it becomes available. Residents are encouraged to educate themselves about COVID-19 & follow the Health Unit’s recommendations to help prevent the spread of viruses:

– wash your hands often with soap and water;

– avoid close contact with people who are sick;

– cover your mouth and nose when you cough or sneeze; if you don’t have a tissue, sneeze or cough into your sleeve or arm;

– avoid touching your face, eyes and mouth to prevent illness;

– clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces.

The most up-to-date information regarding COVID-19 may be found on the Ontario Ministry of Health’s website.
