In effort to keep you informed, effective Oct. 29, 2020, we will be reporting daily the following to you and will continue to track these numbers and notify you of the changes as they occur. This info can be found at www. Yorkhealthpa.com.

• The facility has a total occupancy of 240
• We have 1 Resident in the facility have tested
  positive for COVID-19
• 0 tests pending
• 101 patients that have tested positive and have
  successfully recovered
• 0 staff that have tested positive and are
  observing quarantine

Our mitigation efforts have included creating a separate area dedicated to Covid-19 recovery to best accommodate residents in the facility that require care during this time. As our testing increases, we will be moving residents as required, temporarily, into a designated recovery area and once medically cleared they will be able to return to one of the other units.  Please know that residents that test positive or are suspected of having the virus are being safely quarantined from other residents. 

We are diligently following infection control guidance from the CDC and state authorities, are being vigilant with PPE usage and we continuously encourage safe social distancing and masking.

Once our staff are screened before starting their shift and also have had baseline testing completed in accordance with Governor Wolfe’s Executive order. As staff test positive or display signs or symptoms they will be placed off work and quarantined in accordance with CDC guidance.

We know how hard it is, especially during this pandemic to not be able to visit and see your loved ones. Any family that would like to arrange for a facetime phone call can either contact the social services department of leave a voice mail at 215-424-4090.

As always, we thank you for your continued support and pray that everyone stays safe and well.

Sincerely,

Administration
