The City of Ottawa has put together a list of 28 local long-term care homes most at risk of COVID-19 outbreaks, and says Ottawa Public Health's (OPH) mobile vaccination teams will be visiting the homes in order of risk.

The ethical framework used by the city to form the list evaluated the risk of severe disease or outcomes, and health system capacity to ensure ongoing care to their populations. OPH then conducted a census of long-term care and retirement homes, in order to rank the facilities based on the established ethical framework.

There are 14 Ottawa long-term care homes experiencing COVID-19 outbreaks as of Friday, January 8.

Long-term care home administrators are expected to work with staff and residents who are eligible to receive the vaccine in their facilities, to secure consents and other logistics.

The ranked list is as follows:

1. Perley Rideau Veterans’ Health Centre
2. Carlingview Manor Long-Term Care Home
3. Peter D. Clark Home (City of Ottawa facility)
4. St. Patrick’s Home of Ottawa
5. Garry J. Armstrong (City of Ottawa facility)
6. Saint-Louis Residence – Bruyère
7. Extendicare Medex
8. Extendicare West End Villa
9. Extendicare Laurier Manor
10. The Glebe Centre
11. Madonna Care Community
12. Extendicare Starwood
13. Garden Terrace
14. Centre d’Accueil Champlain (City of Ottawa facility)
15. Granite Ridge Care Community
16. Forest Hill
17. Villa Marconi
18. Carleton Lodge (City of Ottawa facility)
19. Revera Montfort Long-Term Care Home
20. Osgoode Care Centre
21. Salvation Army Ottawa Grace Manor
22. Hillel Lodge
23. New Orchard Lodge
24. Revera Longfields Manor Long-Term Care Home
25. Résidence Élizabeth Bruyère
26. Manoir Marochel
27. Sarsfield Colonial Home
28. Royal Ottawa Place

The Perley Rideau Veterans’ Health Centre, Carlingview Manor, and Peter D. Clarke Home have already received vaccinations, with Gary J. Armstrong and St. Patrick’s Home of Ottawa scheduled to receive theirs, Friday.
