Two new confirmed cases of COVID-19 have led Niagara Health to declare an outbreak of COVID-19 on Unit 4A at the St. Catharines Site.
Niagara Health is taking proactive measures to ensure safety at the hospital following a potential exposure of COVID on the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).
Niagara Health is continuing its work with Oakwood Park Lodge to protect residents and safely resolve the COVID outbreak at the Niagara Falls long-term care home.
In a year that tested our team like never before, it has been impressive to see how our staff, physicians and volunteers across Niagara have gone above and beyond, working with our partners and the community, to provide safe, high-quality care and support one another during the pandemic.

Niagara Health’s most important priority during the pandemic is the safety of everyone in the hospital.
Three healthcare workers in the Intensive Care Unit have tested positive for COVID-19, meeting the definition of a unit-specific outbreak. This is the fifth inpatient unit outbreak of COVID-19 at the Niagara Falls hospital site.
The team in the Extended Care Unit has worked very hard to limit the spread of this highly contagious virus in the home and maintain a safe environment for the residents and staff.
We are closely monitoring COVID-19 activity at the Greater Niagara General Site and are now declaring an outbreak on Unit D due to the confirmation of four positive healthcare worker cases associated with the unit.
