Hello Everyone!

Effective today (January 25 2024), Rose Garden (1st floor) has been declared by KFLA Public Health in Enteric Outbreak. At this point the earliest it will re-open is January 31 2024. This date may need to extend depending on how the outbreak progresses.

Rose Garden home area is closed. Only Designated Essential Caregivers are permitted into this Home area. Residents are to stay in this Home area for the duration of this outbreak.

Residents' symptoms are gastro in nature (vomiting and diarrhea). Residents isolating in their rooms have to be symptom-free for 48 hours before they can come out of their room.

If an essential caregiver is feeling differently in any way, please, stay home. If you have experienced gastro symptoms yourself, please do not visit for 48 hours after your last symptom. Ensure you are taking every opportunity to hand sanitize your hands and your loved one's hands. If your hands are visibly soiled, soap and water plus friction are the preferred options.

All persons entering Rose Garden Home area are required to wear a mask while on the Home area that covers their mouth and nose.

There is no eating or drinking in this Home area by Essential Caregivers.

Thank you for your support.
