Dear Family & Friends,

Unfortunately, I am writing to report that we have learned of our first Resident case of Covid-19. The Resident initially had a fever on Friday, January 15. The results came back positive on January 18. The household where this Resident lives has been and continues to be on quarantine since the first symptoms were identified. We have also retested all staff and nursing Residents as of today. We will come back and update you once we have the results of this week’s testing.** All the testing for staff during the week of January 11 came back negative.

In the middle of all the commotion, we are preparing for our second vaccine clinic on Wednesday, January 20. Staff and Residents who received their first dose three weeks ago will be receiving their second dose that day. Staff and nursing Residents who missed the first dose and want to receive the vaccine can now have their first dose tomorrow. All independent living Residents in the apartments will also be offered their first dose of the vaccine tomorrow. CVS Pharmacy will then return in three weeks to give the booster to the staff and Residents who need it.

We will continue to test staff weekly as the positivity rate in Allegheny County remains above a certain threshold. We look forward to a time when this pandemic is over. Please continue to join us in prayer for this intention. Thank you.

May God bless you,
Mother Mary Vincent, lsp
Administrator

** A second nursing home Resident did test positive this week (1/20/2021). The Resident is asymptomatic and quarantining like all the other Residents.
