Dear Dosberg Manor Residents, Family Members and Responsible Parties,

This week has certainly been busy at Dosberg Manor! It may be chilly outside, but we're having plenty of fun right here within the walls of Weinberg Campus. Many residents continue to enjoy virtual exercise classes with Sarah, and socially distant news briefings as a group. Pictured below, many enjoyed tasty doughnuts and the sweet sound of Ruth playing the piano. Today we celebrate January birthdays. What a treat!

If your loved one did not receive the first dose of the vaccine, they have a second opportunity to do so on campus - the vaccination schedule is below:

Ongoing Safety Precautions
 
We continue to adhere to the following safety precautions to protect and care for residents and staff on campus.
 
  • Per Department of Health (DOH) recommendations, please do not take residents out of Dosberg Manor except for medically necessary appointments.
  • Care for residents with COVID-19 is provided within one unit to prevent the potential spread. We continue to work closely with the DOH to follow the latest recommendations and requirements.
  • Our facility uses a comprehensive, science-based 7-step disinfection program that includes a pulsed UV disinfection system proven to eliminate pathogens from surfaces in seconds. This technology is also used in many hospitals.
  • To ensure everyone’s safety, we continue to follow the DOH requirements in utilizing personal protective equipment such as face masks, eye protection, gowns, and gloves. 
Visitation

At this time, we have one positive case of COVID-19 in a staff member. Per DOH guidelines, restricted in-person visitation is temporarily suspended and is tentatively scheduled to resume February 8, pending we have no new cases of COVID-19 for 14 consecutive days, and pending there are no changes in DOH regulations regarding visitation
