COVID UPDATE September 12, 2022

Residents and visitors are strongly encouraged to wear masks, especially for events or gatherings. If a resident is having any symptoms related to an infectious illness or cold, it is recommended that you test for COVID and isolate until you are symptom-free. Visitors are encouraged to test before visiting. At-home COVID tests are available at local pharmacies and may be reimbursed by insurance.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation.

All visitors to our buildings are required to screen in and follow all infection control protocols.

Masks are to be worn by all team members, residents, vendors, and guests when visiting our licensed health care areas, regardless of vaccination status.  Any Vendor/Contractor must sign an attestation form for any employee who is in contact with residents or staff.  See a concierge or reception team member.  

Any health care resident leaving campus is asked to complete a Risk Assessment before leaving.
