Understanding COVID-19
COVID-19, also known as the novel coronavirus, is a highly contagious respiratory illness caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. It was first identified in Wuhan, China, in late 2019 and has since become a global health crisis. Older adults, especially those with underlying health conditions, are at a higher risk of developing severe symptoms or complications due to COVID-19.

Strict visitor restrictions and screening protocols are in place to ensure the well-being of everyone in our community.
Latest Guidelines and Safety Measures
We constantly monitor the latest guidelines and recommendations from reputable health organizations, such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO). This allows us to implement evidence-based strategies and safety measures to protect our residents and staff.
