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
New activities for this month include flower arranging, garden decor making, cupcake decorating. Be on the lookout for scheduled outdoor visit days as the weather gets warmer.
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.
Did you know you can bring your pets to visit?! When visiting with your furry loved ones, please make sure to bring a copy of vaccination records.
