Saskatchewan Health Authority officials provide an update on efforts to control the spread of COVID-19 in Saskatchewan and on updated visitation, family presence, and masking guidelines in SHA facilities.

In Regina is CEO Scott Livingstone. Joining over Webex are Derek Miller, Emergency Operations Centre Lead, Dr. Susan Shaw, Chief Medical Officer, and Dr. Julie Kryzanowski, Senior Medical Health Officer.

The Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) is expanding its criteria for compassionate reasons related to visitation restrictions.

The SHA established a Family Presence Expert Panel with patient and family advisors, along with public health and Infection Prevention and Control experts, to provide guidance on recommendations to support family presence during COVID-19.

Following the work of the expert panel, the new inclusions to compassionate care can be used immediately with full implementation planned for the coming week.
