MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR

Hello Everyone!

We are very happy to share that KFLA Public Health has declared all of our outbreaks over.

The Home is now completely opened up but please be very cautious.

These gastro symptoms remain very common in our community right now. (nausea, diarrhea and vomiting)

If you are not feeling well, or have been around someone who was not feeling well, please postpone entering the Home for 48 hours.

Hand washing is so incredibly important!!!!

We maintain a high standard of infection control cleaning which is very helpful in resolving our outbreaks quickly with minimal spread in the Home area, but we definitely need everyone's help and support to ensure the most positive outcomes.

Masking:

Given the prevalence of enteric cases in the community, we would strongly encourage you to keep your mask on the entire time you are in the Home.

Our regular full Family Newsletter will be coming on Friday March 1.

Stay well,

Angela Malcolm RN
