In this document, you will find some general recommendations from Indigenous Services Canada concerning ventilation in homes during the pandemic.
This guidance provides information on how indoor ventilation, in combination with other recommended public health measures, can reduce the spread of COVID-19.
The provincial government has announced new health measures effective January 9. These measures will have the following impacts on community services:
Council Office
The Council office is closed to visitors until February 8. However, the various services will continue to be offered by telephone or e-mail.
Health Center
The health center remains open and continues to offer its services. However, we encourage remote consultation whenever possible.
Library
The library remains open but will exceptionally close at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesdays in order to respect the curfew.
We would like to remind you of the importance of respecting the instructions in order to limit the spread of the virus.
For more information, visit the Quebec government’s website on Coronavirus disease.
Thank you for your collaboration,
Management Team
Adequate protection should be given as a priority to people with weak immune systems, those with chronic diseases or the elderly. These people should refrain from being around people and remain confined for the time being.
For others, if you are experiencing difficulties with your child and it is necessary for family balance to have support, a healthy person in your family can take care of your child without you falling into the trap of illegality. The idea is to exchange the child in a short period of time, with only two adults and to respect the suggested health rules. Obviously, we are talking about a situation where the child or the parent could suffer if no help is provided.
If no one around you can play this role or if you would like to discuss with a social worker what actions will help you get through this period more easily, you are invited to contact 1 855 494-1686 ext. 1213.
