Update from the Administrator 5/4/22
DATE: 05/04/2022
Dear Residents, Families and Representatives,
I am writing to inform you that we had one staff person test positive for COVID during testing this week and were notified of the results today. The staff person is off work until they fully recover. We are monitoring all residents and will be doing targeted testing of staff. There is currently no need to test residents, however, if any resident develops symptoms or new information comes to light that would indicate a need to test residents we will do so. We will continue in outbreak status for 14 days.
Consent forms for the 2nd COVID booster went out recently. Please be sure to return the consents as soon as possible so we can finalize details for the vaccination clinic. If you or your resident don’t wish to receive a booster vaccination we still appreciate getting that information. We are happy to answer any questions you have and, as always, you are encouraged to speak to your medical provider for guidance. Residents who are 4 months out from their last vaccine or are moderately to severely immunocompromised are eligible for a 2nd booster. We strongly encourage all residents and staff to stay up to date on all recommended vaccines to keep themselves and others protected. Vaccines are shown to provide significant protection against severe illness, hospitalization and death.
Stay well,
Linda Smith NHA
Administrator
