At this time, 3 visitors per resident are permitted to visit at one time.  If you would like to book a special gathering with more than three people, please call (902) 527-6363 or email info@ashwoodcare.ca to book a larger space for a visit involving more than three people. For these gatherings, you may close the door to the room and family and friends that you have invited may remove their masks while behind the closed door.

There will be a sign in sheet at both entrances and visitors must sign in upon arrival. This is for safety purposes as we need to know who is in the building in case of an emergency. You must still wear a mask in the facility while in close proximity to other residents. If you are in a private area, resident room or outside, you are no longer required to wear a mask.
