**COVID-19 Update**
September 23rd, 2021

I hope everyone is staying safe and enjoying the cooler temperatures of these first days of Fall. I will continue to provide updates regarding the status of COVID-19 in the Center as the situation changes.

CDC County Community Transmission Level and Percent Positivity: High – decreased to 4.3%
Testing: While in an outbreak, patients and staff are tested every 3-7 days until the Center is 14 days without a positive test result.
PPE: The supply remains adequate. Staff have received ongoing education on appropriate PPE utilization.
Visitation: Visitation is temporarily suspended with the exception of compassionate care visits.

As always, please feel free to reach out with any questions you may have.

Sincerely,

Leslie Ruffner, LNHA
Administrator
