The Saskatchewan Health Authority says proof of full COVID-19 vaccination will be required to enter all acute care facilities and long term care homes.

The province says this includes all affiliates and aligns with both the SHA Health Care Worker Proof of Vaccination policy and the provincial Proof of Vaccination contained in the Saskatchewan Public Health Order for non-essential businesses and events.

Patients will not be required to provide proof of full vaccination to receive care or service.

The Ministry of Health will be directing personal care homes to align with this policy.
