Dear Residents and Family Members,
Today is January 9, 2022, and unfortunately, we have four more employees who have tested positive for the COVID-19 virus.
Today we learned that a member of our culinary team who worked today, January 9, 2022, is symptomatic. In addition, another member of our culinary team who last worked January 6, 2022, is also symptomatic. An Assisted Living Caregiver who last worked January 7, 2022, is symptomatic as is a member of our administrative team who last worked yesterday, January 8, 2022. I know you all join me is sending best wishes for a full and complete recovery to all of our dear team members.
We have and will continue to do contact tracing. In addition, we have notified all mandated regulatory agencies. And lastly, we continue to follow CDC guidelines for employees returning to work.
Please understand that due to HIPPA, as well as employee confidentiality, we give as much information as we can while honoring our staff and residents.
Our team is pulling together and supporting one another, and we will get through this.
With much gratitude,
Pam Ferris
President and CEO
