Update from Administrator – March 23, 2021
March 23, 2021
Dear Resident, Family Member or Responsible Party,
On March 10th, CMS issued revised guidance which can be found on their website at https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/hcp/infection-control-after-vaccination.html on nursing home visitation, which includes new guidance on indoor visitation and visitation during outbreaks under certain circumstances.
After another week of testing, we do not have any COVID-19 positive residents in our building nor do we have any staff members out on quarantine due to the COVID-19 Virus. Per the new CMS guidance, we are currently open to visitations. Please read the attached flyer which outlines some very important information in regards to our Athena Visitation Policy.
We continue to offer visitations using our technology (iPads, tablets, calls, etc.) and when we can, window visits and outside visits. If you do not have an appointment scheduled, please contact the recreation department at 860-444-1175 to schedule an appointment for an outdoor visit, window visit, facetime visit, and/or indoor visit.
Thank you and please stay safe and healthy!
~ From all of us at Bayview Health Care
