Dear Families and Loved Ones,
COVID-19 Vaccination Information
Based on guidance from public health experts, Indiana government officials have released updated excursion and holiday guidelines.
Due to widespread community outbreaks of COVID-19, the State Department of Health and Local Health Departments strongly recommend against residents leaving communities for holiday gatherings, excursions, funerals and weddings at this time. Individuals who leave the facility for these types of visits should be placed in quarantine for 14 days when returning.
This has been a difficult time for everyone, so a heartfelt thank you for helping us keep your loved ones safe.
Indoor visits have currently ceased due to a county positivity rate greater than 10%, according to CDC guidance.
With this in mind, we appreciate your attention to the following outdoor visitation requirements:
- Please check with your community to schedule visitation times in advance.
- A schedule of available visitation hours will be established.
- All visitors must sign in, provide contact information, will be screened and temperatures taken upon arrival.
- All visitors and residents will visit a hand sanitizing station.
- Outdoor visitation spaces must allow appropriate social distancing of at least 6 feet between visitors and loved ones.
- Both residents and visitors will wear a surgical mask or cloth face covering for the duration of the visit, with special accommodations when this is not possible for residents.
- Visitors may provide food and beverage to the resident consistent with dietary considerations, but food should not be shared between residents and visitors.
- Visitation should be restricted to children 12 years of age or older. Visitors with children must be able to manage them safely, and children must be able to wear a face mask during the entire visitation.
Please continue to monitor frequent communication from the Executive Director concerning community visitation updates and guidance.
