IF YOU COME INTO CONTACT WITH SOMEONE WHO HAS COVID-19

  • If you are showing symptoms, you are legally required to self isolate for 5 days from when the symptoms started and until symptoms are gone (whichever is longer).
  • If you do not have symptoms, you are legally required to self-isolate for 5 days from the date you were tested; this date will change if you develop symptoms during this 5 day period.

 

IF YOU TEST POSITIVE FOR COVID-19

  • You will need to inform WSAC immediately and self isolate yourself from our centre for 14 days.

 

WHAT HAPPENS IF WE HAVE TO CLOSE OUR CENTRE DUE TO A COVID-19 SITUATION

  • We will close our centre a minimum of 14 days
  • WSAC will adhere to all guidelines as set by the Alberta government and Public Health regarding re-opening the building.

SOME THINGS WE ALL NEED TO CONSIDER:

  • Our funding is based on us being open and serving seniors. If we close due to a Covid-19 incident, will we continue to receive our funding or do we run a risk of causing long-term problems for us as a centre?
  • Our instructors, many of them who are long-time partners with us, will be out of work. We cannot expect them to wait for us to reopen. Do we run the risk of losing some of your favorite instructors?
