To ensure the safety of our residents and employees we are continuing Covid-19 testing of Residents weekly and Employees two- three times a week at this time due to the high prevalence of Covid in the community. In transparency the facility currently has 1 resident that tested positive for Covid-19 and 3 Covid positive residents newly admitted to the Covid Recovery unit. There are currently 0 employees that are positive for COVID-19. The facility is currently in outbreak mode. Unfortunately, we suffered with the total loss of 20 Residents to the Covid-19 virus. We ask that everyone remains vigilant with PPE & mask usage and we continuously encourage safe social distancing.
Sinai continues to arrange scheduled & supervised outdoor visitation by appointment only, during the hours of 11:30am- 1:30pm. Visits will be limited to 15 minutes per visit at this time in order to accommodate as many scheduled visits as possible. ** Please Note – visits will be cancelled / rescheduled due to extreme weather conditions such as Rain or Temperatures below 45 degrees**.
