Stricter COVID-19 measures undertaken at seniors’ homes across Alberta have taken their toll on several families in the province.

On Friday, the province announced new measures impacting long-term care, supportive living and congregate living settings, limiting visitations to only one essential visitor.

According to Alberta Health Services, essential visitors are family, friends or paid companions that provide necessary care for the well-being of the resident as well as visitors attending to a resident who is dying.

The restrictions also state that visitors must be verified and undergo a health screening, which includes a temperature check or a questionnaire before entering the facility.
