Quebec has ordered inspections done in 40 private nursing homes across the province after confirming 31 seniors died at a single private seniors’ residence in the last month alone.
At least five of the deaths at the residence, Dorval’s Résidence Herron, were due to COVID-19, Premier François Legault announced on Saturday.
A police investigation has also been launched after the province says the centre’s staff “abandoned” its 150 residents during the coronavirus pandemic and its owner refused to cooperate with authorities once the situation came to light.
