Thank you to all of our families, friends and stakeholders for your support. We truly appreciate your patience and understanding during the last two years, where we have had to make hard decisions in order to keep our residents and staff safe.
With the province of Ontario lifting all COVID-19 restrictions by the end of April, we will remain focused on ensuring the safety of all residents and staff at 2880 Bayview. We will continue to enforce a mask mandate for all staff and visitors, and will continue requiring pre-scheduled visitations.
  • Visits must be pre-arranged with management.
  • Masks must be worn for the duration of the visit.
  • Two visitors allowed per visit. 
  • All visitors must be vaccinated with at least two mRNA vaccines
