The military has been deployed to another Ontario long-term care home that has been hit hard by COVID-19.
In a statement on Sunday, the Ministry of Long-Term Care said the Canadian Armed Forces are onsite at Woodbridge Vista Care Community in Woodbridge, Ont. to do an assessment.
"Long-term care homes determined to be the highest priority for the Canadian Armed Forces deployment were those that have the most acute staffing challenges leading to poor resident outcomes." "Despite receiving hospital support, Woodbridge Vista Care Community has been unable to contain the spread of COVID-19," the province said in a news release issued Thursday.
