People can now visit their loved ones inside Niagara Health's Extended Care Unit in Welland.

Visitor restrictions are lifting and indoor visits can now be arranged.
Up to two people per patient are allowed for both indoor and outdoor visits.
Outdoor visitors don't need to show proof of a negative COVID-19 test, but Niagara Health says indoor visitors do.
The negative test must be done within the last two weeks for each visit.
Visitors will need to pass a screening test and wear a mask for their entire visit.
Physical distancing rules must be followed and you are to wait in your vehicle until a staff member invites you to a designated area.
