­Skilled Nursing

Over the past couple days, 13 additional skilled nursing residents have tested positive for COVID-19. Team member testing on Monday revealed two team members testing positive as well. Per our procedures, any resident testing positive, or exhibiting any signs or symptoms are immediately isolated to prevent any potential spread to other residents. We are currently testing any additional residents that may have been affected and continue to test any residents immediately after they show any signs or symptoms of COVID-19. All communal dining has been suspended and all activities will be conducted at a distance to limit any additional spread.

Team members in Skilled Nursing will be required to wear a KN-95 mask or greater for the remainder of the outbreak. We will resume surgical masks once we have gone 2 weeks without any new positive cases.
