Dear Families,
Welcome to April’s news! We look forward to enjoying all the signs of spring together at the center this month.
Special Announcement
If you know anyone wanting to volunteer (church group, friends, young kids, college age kids) or anyone Please contact Recreation Team for further details. Spread the word!
This month, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services launched a new requirement for long-term care centers regarding “Enhanced Barrier Precautions.” You will see our team wearing gowns and gloves occasionally in the center. This added level of precaution protects patients who might be more vulnerable if exposed to any multidrug-resistant organisms that live on the body.
We wanted to make sure you understand this is for extra precautions not because there is a new virus or germ in the center. As always, we appreciate your help in infection prevention! Washing our hands is the best way to prevent germs from spreading.
Here are our events for the month:
Solar Eclipse Viewing – April 8th – 2:00-4:00pm
Performers: Raymond Akers (April 5th)
Aaron Howard (April 12th)
The Sev7ens (April 16th)
Lightnin Charlie (April 18th)
