Welcoming Outdoor Visitors

We are pleased to be able to host families once again in Ontario while meeting the requirements provided by MCCSS! This week, you will find the COVID-19 Visiting Guide for Locations on our COVID-19 Resource page. The guide will include a visit planning form to help you schedule and prepare to host upcoming visits while complying with the guidelines set out by MCCSS. In addition, a COVID-19 Visiting Guide for Families and Friends will be published on our external COVID-19 page for families to access and review prior to their scheduled visit. When preparing to host a visit, please ensure that you are directing families to the COVID-19 Visiting Guide for Families and Friends, as it is an MCCSS requirement to inform visitors and provide them with information on our visiting protocols.

How can we streamline these documents to make your work easier?
