It is with saddness that we announce a 2nd death on Menno Home E1. Please continue to support, encourage and pray for the staff – they are very attached to the residents whom they care for and are taking these deaths very hard. There was also a death just prior to the outbreak, so they have lost 3 of their residents within the past several weeks. We are grateful for staff who are so present for the residents they serve and love.
We are now seeing the staff recovering and return to work. We welcome back to E1 Home one of the staff who was an original COVID positive reported on August 31st. We thank Fraser Health for providing staff to fill in when our staff were sick, contagious and unable to work. We are grateful for our daily call with Fraser Health. The COVID-Response Team
