Dear Clients, Families and Team Members:

Here is today's COVID updates, section by section.

We had 1 additional resident at the West Campus test positive today. We will do a re-test of all clients on Thursday, December 3rd to determine if and how much it has spread to other clients.

All activities, wellness, community dining, etc., is paused until further notice.

EAST CAMPUS
We completed repeat testing on all clients at the East Campus today. We are thrilled to report that no additional clients tested positive today! We are required to repeat every 3-7 days for 14 days until all negative; this means we will repeat again next Monday or Tuesday at the East Campus.

We are resuming Wellness on a 1-1 basis at the East Campus only.
