Update from Administrator – December 4, 2020
Hi Everyone:
Hope you are staying safe and feeling well. I apologize for the late email today, but just wanted to keep everyone informed as to the happenings at Valerie Manor.
We continue to test all of our staff and residents on a weekly basis. We currently have close to 20 residents and 22 staff that are Covid positive.. As the state’s positivity rate continues to climb, the state is directing nursing homes to test all residents for COVID 19. This will identify any resident that has COVID-19, without any symptoms. As always, we will alert you if your loved one tests positive.
The facility is following the guidance for proper cohorting of residents which leads to room changes for our residents. While this is often an inconvenience, it is for the safety and benefit of all residents in the facility.
We will briefly hold our weekly Town Hall phone call today December 4, 2020 at 2:00pm.
Robert Fritz
