Royal Victoria Regional Health Centre in Barrie, Ont., ramps up surgeries paused due to COVID-19 “People have understood that visitor restrictions were an important safety precaution to take during the pandemic, but we recognize the separation was very difficult for patients and their loved ones,” said Nancy Savage, executive vice-president of patient and family experience at RVH, in a statement.“Visitors are vital to patients’ well-being and recovery and are integral members of the care team.
RVH is thrilled that we are now able to begin gradually lifting visitor restrictions.”Resuming visitation at RVH will be a phased approach.
