Now that vaccines are widely available and recognizing that many of our staff are already vaccinated, vaccination will be a condition of employment for new hires, except when impossible due to legitimate, established exceptions. _The vaccine must be a _two-dose COVID-19 _vaccination series approved by Health Canada_._ _This is one more important step to protect both our residents and staff as we continue to battle this deadly virus._
