Respiratory Outbreak Declared Over Rainycrest Long Term Care Home

October 13, 2025

In conjunction with the Northwestern Health Unit, Riverside Health Care wishes to advise that the respiratory outbreak on the West Wing and Special Care Unit (SCU) of Rainycrest Long Term Care Home has been declared over.

All visitor and resident restrictions at the Home have been lifted, and regular visitation may now resume.

Riverside continues to encourage all visitors to self-screen before entering our facilities, practice good hand hygiene, and postpone their visits if they are feeling unwell or experiencing flu-like symptoms. These simple steps make a meaningful difference in preventing the spread of illness and keeping everyone safe and healthy.

We recognize that outbreaks can be stressful and disruptive, and we appreciate the patience, cooperation, and continued support of residents, their families, staff, and visitors.
