Resident Letter
COVID-19 Update
3.6.2020
March 6 th , 2020

Dear Bainbridge Senior Living Family,

In an effort to keep everyone as informed as possible during the current outbreak of COVID-19, we plan to send out a weekly flyer on Fridays. This letter will be printed and posted on your front door and will also be emailed out to all families.

The Department of Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) are providing frequent updates to keep us informed, and to emphasize recommendations about everyday preventive actions, which help prevent the spread of respiratory diseases.

Here are some steps Bainbridge Senior Living is taking to ensure each of our communities is as safe as possible:

  1. Disinfecting and cleaning all high touch areas several times daily, following CDC protocol
  2.  Sanitizing all kitchen and dining surfaces following CDC protocol
  3.  Restricting guest entry through main doors only. Asking guests who have or show any signs of illness to please refrain from visiting at this time
  4.  Providing hand sanitation stations at entry points and requiring visitors to wash hands upon entry
  5.  Limiting vendor and entertainer visits in each community
  6.  Limiting exposure to community gatherings by altering activities calendar/outings 
  7. Using extra care to keep staff informed and trained with regards to all necessary safeguards in providing proper care during this time
  8.  Stocking emergency supplies for each community

HOW YOU CAN HELP

We are asking that if you feel sick or show signs of the cold or flu (e.g. fever, cough, or shortness of breath) remain in your apartment and inform staff.  We will provide your care - including delivery of meals and other items you may require.  

During this time, there will be no an additional charge for meal delivery should you require this service. As a side note: should you have need of any supplies you would normally purchase at the store, please let the front desk know and we will be happy to make a shopping run for you.

Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after going to the bathroom; before eating; and after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.

Thank you for your help and patience!  If you have any questions at all, please reach out to your Executive Director or Director.

Thank you for being part of the BSL Family!

Cordially,

Morgan Rohrbach
President and CEO
