The COVID-19 pandemic has been challenging, and has required extra safety measures in settings with vulnerable populations, such as Assisted Living and Long-Term Care facilities. Due, however, to the success of vaccines and an overall decrease in respiratory viruses, the Provincial Health Officer announced the lifting of visitation restrictions for these settings on April 6, 2023.
We continue to be actively engaged with the Ministry of Health and the Fraser Health Authority to stay apprised of new information.

How do I become an Essential Visitor?
- The Essential Visitor designation has a narrow eligibility as determined by the Provincial Health Officer, and relates to visits deemed essential in nature, such as end-of-life care. If you would like to review your visitor status to learn if you are eligible to become an Essential Visitor, please contact Jennifer Ladesma, Director of Care, at 604-587-8999 ext 4003 or jladesma@elimvillage.com.
What is a Single Designated Visitor?
- A Single Designated Visitor is one individual who can continue to visit a resident even if visitation is restricted, such as during an outbreak. This designation cannot rotate between family members or friends; it must remain the same person.
How do I become the Single Designated Visitor?
- Elim has already contacted the first contact of each Full Care resident to determine the identity of the Single Designated Visitor.
