COVID-19 outbreak at Hollyburn House in West Vancouver

STAFF REPORT
June 24, 2021 4:02pm

Vancouver Coastal Health (VCH) has declared an outbreak in the Care Centre area of Hollyburn House Retirement Residence in West Vancouver on June 21 after one resident and one staff member tested positive for COVID-19.

The resident is in isolation in their room, and the staff member is in self-isolation at home, said Revera, the company that managed the care centre.

This outbreak is limited to the licensed care centre area of the residence and does not involve the independent living or assisted living areas.

“Residents on affected units are being tested in consultation with public health. Residents are receiving their meals in their rooms and group recreation activities are being replaced with one-to-one interactions to maintain social engagement during the outbreak,” Revera said in a press statement.

All the residents of Hollyburn House who have consented have received their first and second doses. Almost all the staff have also had their first dose, and a large majority of staff at Hollyburn are fully vaccinated.

Second shots for the remaining staff seeking their second doses is ongoing. Meantime, social visits are cancelled during the outbreak and essential visits may continue with one visitor at a time per resident
