Brockville, ON, August 12, 2022 – Brockville General Hospital (BGH), in consultation with the Leeds Grenville and Lanark District Health Unit, has declared an outbreak of COVID-19 on the first floor Inpatient Medical Surgical Unit (also known as 1 East). The outbreak currently involves five inpatients and three healthcare workers, who have tested positive for COVID-19. As a result, the unit is now closed to scheduled visitors.

Infection Prevention and Control and Occupational Health and Safety are working closely together to complete all necessary contact tracing and testing. Affected patients, essential care partners, scheduled visitors and healthcare workers are being notified by BGH.

To protect vulnerable patients and vital healthcare workers, in addition to our current practices of screening upon entry, masking and limiting visitors, BGH is also increasing cleaning, enhancing use of personal protective equipment and restricting unnecessary entry into the unit.
