It'll soon be easier to visit loved ones in congregate care settings like women's shelters and residences for children in care.

When the province moves into Step Three of the re-opening framework tomorrow, scheduled indoor and outdoor visits will be allowed.

Residents will also be able to enjoy overnight absences, and fully immunized residents won't need a negative COVID-19 test upon their return.

People wishing to visit friends and family members in congregate care settings are advised to contact the residence administration to book a time slot.
