COMMUNITY UPDATE – THURSDAY, February 25, 2021
Dear residents and families,
One of the most important tools we have to fight COVID-19 is the vaccine. We understand many of our Shoreham community have questions regarding the vaccine clinics. We would like to offer a brief update on our progress.
Over the past month, Shoreham staff have been able to access the vaccine through NSH clinics. We are also happy to report that over 90% of Shoreham residents have received their first dose vaccine as of yesterday. Our clinic for Designated Caregivers will start tomorrow.
As many may know, the list of exposure sites throughout Nova Scotia has again started to rise. Please review the attached Community Exposure List attached below.
Some points to remember from Dr. Strang.
- Numbers are starting to creep back up, we have had 6 variant cases to date. Strang says he is worried about community spread, more people are socializing more with different groups of people. Based on this we do expect higher case numbers in the coming days.
- Advice is to slow down social activities and keep the same small social circles consistently. “We are still in a pandemic.” Dr. Strang says we need to stick with this for 2-3 months longer.
- People who go to social events where they don’t wear a mask, they should consider getting a test a week from that event.
- The more you’re out, the more people you’re with, the more frequently you should get tested, said Strang.
Updated Exposure List for February 25 2021
COMMUNITY UPDATE – THURSDAY, February 11, 2021
Dear residents and families,
CHESTER, Nova Scotia – Shoreham Village Continuing Care Facility is one of seven Long Term Care homes in the province that have been identified for replacement or significant renovation based on their overall condition and best practices in infection control.
The announcement was made on Friday, January 29, 2021 by Premier Stephen McNeil as part of the province’s commitment to make major investments in long-term care beds and facilities to better serve residents, families and staff.
“We are extremely excited that Shoreham Village has made the list for immediate work,” says President and CEO Janet Simm. The Shoreham facility was built in the mid 1970s and the design standards from that era no longer meet the needs of our residents. With this investment , we can ensure our residents have a more comfortable environment that allows for increased privacy and a the best care possible.
Shoreham has been working for a number of years with the Department of Health and Wellness to make upgrades to the aging facility. Shoreham is an old building and will need significant attention. The Shoreham team is looking forward to the continued collaboration with the Department of Health over the next few months as planning for this important project gets underway.
COMMUNITY UPDATE – MONDAY, January 11, 2021
Dear residents and families,
We are all looking forward to a new and positive year. Nova Scotia numbers are trending lower each day but we must all stay vigilant. We all need to ensure we do our very best to keep our community and residents healthy and safe.
On January 8, 2021 government has advised that there will be no change in the guidelines for visitors in Long Term Care. This will be re-evaluated on January 25, 2021.
Due to the increasing numbers of COVID cases in New Brunswick, Steven McNeil and Dr. Strang have announced the tightening of the Nova Scotia border. People entering Nova Scotia from New Brunswick must complete the Nova Scotia Safe Check-In form before arriving and self-isolate for 14 days upon arrival.
Nova Scotian’s returning from New Brunswick must also self-isolate for 14 days unless they are exempt from the order. For example, people who regularly cross the provincial border for work do not have to isolate and can get a pass from border officials to display in their vehicle.
Any Northwood staff that have travelled and returned from New Brunswick must also follow these directives. Staff that are required to self-isolate will not be paid during their required self isolation.
People who arrived from New Brunswick or had visitors from that province in the past 14 days should get tested immediately and consider a second test five to seven days later. They should self-isolate while waiting for the first test result. People can book a test at https://covid-self-assessment.novascotia.ca/en .
Permanent residents of Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland and Labrador do not have to isolate if they drive straight through New Brunswick to Nova Scotia with no or minimal stops.
Post-secondary students arriving from anywhere except Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland and Labrador should get tested on days 6, 7 or 8 of their self-isolation. Students arriving from New Brunswick should check with their institutions about any potential changes in residence accommodations related to self-isolation.

CURRENT UPDATE – WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 6, 2021
Dear Residents and Families,
Please see the attached process for resident items to be dropped off at the Shoreham Facility. During the COVID-19 pandemic, residents may need essential or non-essential items from outside the facility or belongings from home. This process pertains to accepting gifts from family/support person(s) or designated caregivers. Please review the document below for full details.
CURRENT UPDATE – FRIDAY, DECEMBER 18, 2020
Dear Residents and Families,
With the announcement earlier this week on the easement of visiting restrictions, we are happy to provide the following update.
We are close to the holidays and many preparations and schedules are already in place. Our team is committed to increasing the opportunities for resident and family connections.
We will begin the process of increasing the assigned designated caregivers to two immediately with additional participation beginning on Monday, December 21. The process will be the same as previous participation in the program.
- A maximum of two DCGs designated by the residents or substitute decision-makers. One person can visit at one time as a DCG. There have been over 90 participants in the DCG program.
- The additional DCG will be the one that was assigned prior to the last restrictions.
- Please phone 902-275-5631 ext. 235 for more information.
Organized visiting will resume on Monday. We will balance visiting with planned events and with the resident’s ability for visits. Residents so enjoy the ability to participate in events. The process will include:
- Visits will be booked for a maximum of 2 visitors per resident at a time. We will be prioritizing visits for residents who do not currently have a DCG to enable more residents and family to connect throughout the holidays.
- Visits will be booked on a first-come basis and will be accommodated in spaces to provide privacy for the visit.
- Visitors must wear masks at all times during the visit.
- Visitors must be screened prior to visiting.
- Commercially purchased, non-perishable foods (sweets or treats – do not need refrigeration) for residents to take to their room are acceptable. Food can not be shared at the visit because masks must be worn at all times.
- If you do bring parcels for Christmas, please make sure staff know to ensure items are recorded and labeled as necessary
We are excited to have people back for the holidays. Staff will continue to monitor that precautions are followed to keep residents, family, and staff safe.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
CURRENT UPDATE – WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 16, 2020
Dear Residents and Families,
The province has recently announced the creation of regional Care Units (RCUs) to care for Long Term Care (LTC) residents that test positive for COVID-19. The province has also designated some LTC homes as Care in Place.
Shoreham Village has been designated as a Care in Place home. This allows the staff who know your loved ones the best to continue caring for them if they test positive for COVID-19. We have created dedicated space for this purpose and are ready should it be required. Resident safety remains our top priority.
We are following all Public Health protocols and are doing all we can to keep residents safe.
CURRENT UPDATE – THURSDAY, DECEMBER 10, 2020
Dear Residents and Families,
Shoreham and the Department of Health and Wellness acknowledge the importance of quality of life, mental health, and overall well-being of all residents. Residents of long-term care are more susceptible to acquiring COVID-19 and therefore we need to have strong safety measures in place.
As outlined in the attached Long Term Care Guidelines, in order to keep all residents and staff safe, the number of designated caregivers will continue to be reduced from two to one and all indoor visitation will continue to be suspended until December 17, 2020. Please watch for updates.
Guidelines for LTC Facilities 2020_12_10
CURRENT UPDATE – WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 2, 2020
Dear Residents and Families,
On December 1, 2020, the Chief Medical Officer of Health announced changes to the Public Health directives. Effective today the Designated Caregiver (DCG) Program has been restricted to one DCG per resident, assigned by the resident or their substitute decision-maker.
Shoreham is committed to continuing this program within the Public Health directives. We value the importance family connection has on the wellbeing of residents and family. The required precautions e.g. screening, mandatory masking at all times, signing in, restricted movement within the facility must continue to be strictly followed. If a DCG is unable to follow all precautionary measures, participation in the program will not continue.
For those DCGs who have not been able to receive a flu vaccine due to limited supply in the community, please advise when you contact the above number and we will provide further information.
These changes will be in effect until further notice. The health and safety of Northwood residents, staff, and family members continue to be our number one priority.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
CURRENT UPDATE – FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 2020
Dear Residents and Families
Thank you for your patience as we reviewed the recent directive provided by Public Health and respond to the growing number of individuals testing positive for COVID -19.
- All general visiting has been stopped and we will monitor Public Health directions before any changes are made.
- Residents leaving the facility are currently restricted to medical appointments only. This will be reassessed based on the community transmission situation as reported by Public Health.
- Resident movement off units has been restricted to escorted visits off living areas. We have deployed our Long Term Care Assistants to the resident living areas to support resident engagement and address social isolation. Residents are having meals in the dining room with physical distancing measures to again support socialization.
- Everyone entering the facility continue to be screened for symptoms, universal masking continues as well, anyone entering a resident living area must sign in and out to provide contact tracing. As of Friday, November 27, 2020. Staff and DCG will participate in serial testing for COVID 19. This will be done daily within a 2-week period and then re-testing will occur. Testing clinic dates and times will be posted on the website.
- In follow up to our communication on November 24, we have been able to review our processes and the data on the current Designated Caregivers and medical appointments. Public Health continues to support the DCG program and given the precautions that we have in place we believe we are able to continue this important program. We are however introducing additional precautions. A letter outlining the new Designated Care Program requirements will be provided to each DCG with the understanding that if the DCG is unable to adhere to the measures participation in the program is not possible. Shoreham is committed to providing a safe environment for residents, staff, and visitors. We know the importance of resident and family connections and have seen the commitment of the Designated Caregivers to complying with necessary precautions when visiting. We will continuously monitor this compliance as we do for all staff in the facilities.
We understand the impact restrictions have on residents’ and families’ wellbeing and we believe in the benefits of the Designated Caregiver Program and other family connections including virtual calls. Please continue to monitor our website for additional information.

CURRENT UPDATE – MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 2020
Dear Residents and Families,
We would like to update residents and families on recent changes in the ease of restrictions announced by the provincial government. There was originally mention of allowing resident community access. This directive has been changed to visits with family in their homes.
As of Tuesday, Sept 29th residents at Shoreham may choose to visit with family in their homes as long as they return the same day, no overnight visits. Residents and their family members/support persons are required to abide by physical distancing requirements, gathering limits, hand hygiene, and respiratory etiquette, and to wear a mask when physical distancing cannot be maintained.
A reminder of measures to help keep your loved one safe, such as physical distancing, gathering limits, hand hygiene, and respiratory etiquette, will be reviewed when a visit is arranged and prior to the resident leaving the facility.
Only residents who are not required to self-isolate and who are not demonstrating signs or symptoms of COVID-19 or other illnesses will be able to participate in visits. Residents & their family member/support person will be screened prior to the visit.
If a resident intends to leave the facility to visit with family, we ask that you notify the RN/LPN of your area 24 hours in advance to arrange a pick-up and drop-off time. Should the visit be cancelled for any reason, please notify us in a timely manner.
We look forward to this easement as it provides residents and families more time together

CURRENT WEEKLY UPDATE – WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 26, 2020
During the winter, youth interviewed residents of Shoreham Village and other seniors in the community of Chester, NS. The interviews inspired a music video. It was supposed to be recorded in the home at the end of March so we had to create a virtual choir. Thanks to a grant from the Mental Health Foundation of Nova Scotia to the Chester Municipal Heritage Society, this video is now complete and includes performers from the ages of 2 to 90, mentally challenged and mentally sharp, professional musicians, and people who sang for the first time. The first verse was developed by two youth, (Taylor and Jessie-Lynn) Jamie Junger, Judy Parsons, and Jim Henman. The other verses were completed by Jim Henman and Myles Goodwin. Enjoy!

It is with regret that the Shoreham Village Foundation must inform our supporters of our difficult decision to cancel the 2020 Swing for Shoreham Golf Tournament. Following protocol from the NS Office of Public Health in relation to the current COVID–19 pandemic, knowing the Chester Golf Club has been closed to the public indefinitely and considering the present instability of the economy, there was little choice but to cancel. The 2020 tournament would have been the 10th Annual and we have been looking forward to a celebratory event, but unfortunately, this will not be rescheduled in 2020.
We are grateful for your past and ongoing support of Shoreham Village. On behalf of the Shoreham Foundation, we assure you we will endeavour to do what we can to enhance the quality of the lives of our residents and staff during these challenging times and are committed to keeping everyone’s health and safety at the forefront of what we do.
COVID-19 Update: April 1, 2020
With the recent information on the identification of COVID-19 in a few homes in Nova Scotia, we have now put in motion our decision to create cohorting areas to care for residents if swabbed and identified with COVID-19.
At this time, we DO NOT have an identified case of COVID-19 in Shoreham. This is a preparatory measure. If we get a case everyone will be made aware. We are continuing to be on top of the issues and these cohort floors are examples.
We are sorry for the short turn around but feel it is essential to move this forward quickly. This is a large undertaking that will occur rapidly. Some residents will be relocated to other rooms/locations throughout the facility temporarily to create the space for the cohort floor. We have held admissions in the short term to help with relocating and resettling residents E Wing. Admissions will resume when this is done.
Specific areas have been identified and residents affected are being notified. Team members will be providing emotional support as people are relocated. We also have teams identified to help pack and set up the many aspects of the cohort floors. Managers and Charge Staff will work to determine the most appropriate relocation. We realize that this will be disruptive and challenging for people involved and thank everyone in advance for patience and understanding.
Again at this time, we do not have an identified case of COVID-19 within the Shoreham community.
This is a difficult time for everyone and making these decisions are not easy for anyone. The impact on the residents affected is tremendous and they will need all of our support.
You will see a flurry of activity in the next two days. We are all in this together and are doing everything we can to keep residents and staff safe.
