Family COVID Update
8.14.2020
Thank you for being such a supportive community. We appreciate your patience and understanding while we work hard to keep your loved ones as safe as possible. We hope that you have been able to enjoy some more intimate time with your loved ones with the offering of patio visits.

COVID-19 TESTING
As of today, we have no positive cases of COVID-19 in our Bainbridge Senior Living communities. We are actively monitoring for symptoms or circumstances which match those related to COVID-19. Move-ins are welcome with safety protocols in place.

COMMUNITY UPDATE
As the number of U.S. COVID-19 cases heads towards 5 million, you may be surprised to learn that 80% of those who test positive for the disease never infect anyone else. According to a new report from Fred Hutch, while people can shed the virus for weeks, they are most likely to be highly contagious for “only one or two days” -- often before experiencing symptoms – leading to a phenomenon known as “super-spreading.” Dr. Joshua T. Schiffer with Fred Hutch said that the best thing everyone can do is to, “assume they are infected and contagious when they are in public and do their best to protect others.”

KUOW reports that Washington state is on the downswing from a big peak of cases in mid-July. Our state’s coronavirus response team wants to remind everyone, “Our individual actions make a difference. Fewer, shorter and safer interactions are crucial.”

Thanks everyone!

With Gratitude,
Morgan Rohrbach 
President and CEO
