According to Groenenburg, the Warrenhove is a very large, old building with narrow corridors and many residents. That would make it more difficult to contain the virus. “We thought we should take the measure, on top of what RIVM says.” The mandatory measure of the mouth masks came into effect last Friday.
May allow visitors again
Health Minister De Jonge announced on Monday that a first group of nursing homes may again permit limited visitors from 11 May under strict conditions. Warrenhove is not eligible for this for the time being. “I understand the need, but it is really tailor-made. Here in De Warrenhove we will not be eager to do that on May 11 already. We still want to fight the virus.”
Liante has seven residential care centers, only De Warrenhove has corona infections. “I can imagine that we will start looking at other locations to see how we can create even more contact opportunities between residents and family.”
