It is with great pride that Ms. Zara Pilian received on behalf of the employees of the C.H.S.L.D. Château Westmount the medal of the National Assembly of Quebec which was presented to her by Ms. Maccarone, Member of Parliament for Westmount-Saint-Louis this past October 22nd.

The medal was awarded for the efforts and achievements of the entire C.H.S.L.D. Château Westmount team during the pandemic. Especially during the first wave, where no cases were recorded.

Even during the outbreak during the 2nd wave, employees got involved to ensure their presence and even increase the number of resources on the affected floors without resorting to outside help.

Even today, the C.H.S.L.D. Château Westmount is distinguished by the involvement of its employees by posting a vaccination rate of 100% among them.

The C.H.S.L.D. Château Westmount would like to thank all its employees as well as the residents and their family members without whom, these exceptional results, would not have been achieved.

This Friday, October 22, Château Westmount and its team will have the great honor of being awarded the medal of the National Assembly of Quebec for all the efforts made during the pandemic.

Ms. Pilian, Executive Director, will receive this honor on behalf of the team members from Jennifer Maccarone, Member of Parliament for Westmount-Saint-Louis, at Château Westmount.

The ceremony will take place at 10:30 am. The number of participants will be limited due to sanitary measures. It is therefore possible that the lobby will not accessible for visitors between 10:00 and 11:30.

This recognition is addressed to family members, residents, and employees. It is your support that has allowed us to move forward and deal with this pandemic.

We thank you very much for your cooperation and support.

We would like to remind all visitors that the presentation of a valid vaccination passport is now mandatory to access the centre.

We would also like to take this opportunity to advise you that since children under the age of 12 can not be vaccinated, they cannot visit at this time.

Thank you for your cooperation.

We are pleased to announce that we have achieved a 100% vaccination rate among our employees.

We can assure our residents and families that there will be no impact or service breakdown as of October 15th.

We would also like to remind visitors that the “vaccination pass” will be mandatory to enter the Château from October 15th.

Thank you and have a good day

In anticipation of the ministerial decree that will require employees of the health network to have a complete vaccination to provide services, we ask all families who employ private sitters to send us their proof of vaccination.

People who have not received two doses of vaccine will no longer be authorized inside the C.H.S.L.D. Château Westmount as of October 15, 2021.

In addition, in accordance with the directives of the Quebec Ministry of Health, visitors must also present their vaccination passports to access the facility.

Thank you for your cooperation.

This week marked the end of a very short period of negotiation for the renewal of the Château Westmount collective agreement.

We have signed a new agreement that will take us to 2026. Everything went very well without any conflict. This is proof that it is possible to have good union-management relations even in these difficult times.

Thank you to all the members of the negotiation committee.

Following the new deconfinement measures that will allow more people to access the rooms of the residents, we announce the end of the visits to the Oasis. The last booking date will be June 6, 2021.

Thank you all for the cooperation and understanding you have shown us.

Many of you ask us when the second injection of vaccine will take place for our residents and if our employees have been vaccinated?

I can confirm that some employees have received their first dose and the majority of our residents have received their first dose as well.

However, vaccination is not our responsibility but has been delegated to the CIUSSS Centre-Ouest-de-l’Île-de-Montréal by the authorities.

Therefore, I cannot give you any information because we do not have any news ourselves. Only the CIUSSS knows what is going on and even they are being informed at the last minute by the Ministry of Health when decisions are made.

We, therefore, ask you to be patient and hope you understand that it is not our will to keep you in uncertainty but that we do not have access to the information you want.

Thank you and have a good day.
