**Updated August 4th, 2021**
We hope you are enjoying your summer. I am pleased to share that the Center has now cleared the most recent outbreak of COVID-19.
Given the rate of COVID-19 vaccination among staff and patients in the Center and the low number of positive cases in the Center this year, the information in our weekly updates has remained fairly unchanged in recent weeks. For this reason, we will begin posting the weekly COVID-19 updates to the Center’s website exclusively beginning August 9th, reserving text message and email notifications for positive case notifications and significant updates to Center operations such as visitation and special events as necessary. Our goal is to post the weekly update by Wednesday of each week.
We are committed to continuing to provide you with the most current information regarding COVID-19 in the Center on a weekly basis and as situations develop. The weekly COVID-19 updates may be viewed on the Center’s website: https://potomacfalls-rehab.com/covid19-updates/ .
County Positivity Rate: Increased to 3.9%.
Testing Frequency for Staff and Patients: Unvaccinated staff (if any) are tested weekly based on the county positivity rate. Patients and staff may be tested as needed based on symptoms, exposure, or during an outbreak.
PPE: The supply remains adequate. Staff have received ongoing education on appropriate PPE utilization.
Visitation: Virtual, indoor, and outdoor visitations are all currently available. To schedule, click this link: https://potomacfalls-rehab.com/patient-visitation/.
*Previous cumulative data on COVID-19 may be found on the Center’s website: https://potomacfalls-rehab.com/.
Please feel free to reach out with any questions you may have.
Sincerely,
Brenda K. White, LNHA
