Susie Mayers Blauer, 62, suffers from young onset Alzheimer’s and is currently living at Donald Berman Jewish Eldercare Centre, where her two private caregivers assist to her needs daily.
But since March 14, Mayers Blauer hasn’t seen her family or received any of the essential care provided by her private caregivers.
Quebec Premier François Legault banned all outside entries and visits into senior care residences and homes due to the novel coronavirus outbreak.
The number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in Quebec climbed to 628 Monday with 45 people hospitalized, including 20 people in intensive care, and four fatalities within the same senior home. “For my mom to have any quality of life she needs her caregivers,” says her son Aaron Blauer.
