GREGG CHAMBERLAIN gregg.chamberlain@eap.on.ca
The COVID-19 outbreak at the Pinecrest Nursing Home in Plantagenet is now ended. “In Plantagenet, Pinecrest was resolved yesterday (Sunday),” said Dr. Paul Roum- eliotis, chief medical health officer for the Eastern Ontario Health Unit (EOHU), during his June 1 teleconference with regional media. Pinecrest was the first long-term care facil- ity in the EOHU area to suffer an outbreak of the disease starting in mid-April. The number of confirmed cases during the height of the outbreak was 30 residents and seven staff members. The nursing home is also the sole source of deaths in the EOHU region due to compli- cations from COVID-19. Of the 30 residents infected with the disease, 11 have died. Declaring the outbreak resolved now means that there are no new cases of infec- tions confirmed and that all of the nursing home staff members and the 19 surviving residents who were infected have recovered and no longer show any symptoms. During the outbreak, doctors and nurses from Hawkesbury and District General Hos- pital (HGH) were stationed at the nursing to assist staff with caring for all of the residents. Dr. Roumeliotis confirmed that HGH will continue to assist at Pinecrest for the duration until the situation is back to normal at the nursing home.

estimated at $80,822,051. The UCPR has committed to financing $11,862,975 through its own annual bud- geting process and has also received a $250,000 planning grant for the project from the Ministry of Long-Term Care. The remainder of the project cost, includ- ing a contingency fund, totalling $70 million could be covered through an Infrastructure Ontario loan (IO). The IO program provides municipalities with major infrastructure de- velopment projects with loans at interest rates and/or repayment terms which may cost less than those of traditional financial institutions. UCPR council gave unanimous approval for administration to file loan application with Infrastructure Ontario.
A multimillion long-term loan from the province is needed to pay for con- struction of the new Prescott-Russell Residence long-term care and retire- ment facility. “The United Counties of Prescott-Russell is in a very good position to repay the loan,” said Valérie Parisien, finance director, during the May 27 teleconference session for the regional council. Parisien presented the United Counties of Prescott-Russell council (UCPR) with the four- page summary report, along with support- ing appendices, on the financing proposal for the new Prescott-Russell Residence in Hawkesbury. Total cost for the project is
