COVID-19 Updates

Please note: As COVID-19 positive cases continue to exist in our community, our facility has implemented a COVID-19 unit for positive residents to support our local hospital and community. As a result of admitting positive residents, an increase in the number of active cases in our facility is possible. We still have a separate, dedicated isolation unit for new admissions /readmissions who are not active COVID-19 positive. We continue to fight this COVID-19 pandemic by immunizing our staff and residents with the COVID-19 vaccine, following the CDC and local health department guidelines, and partnership with our local hospital and community. We have sufficient PPE for our staff.
