Dear Families/Friends of CelesteCare,

In keeping you informed of incidents related to COVID-19, I wanted to inform you that we have had a reported positive case, in our community.

We will be testing residents and staff twice a week as well as the next 3 days to ensure we are aware of any positive cases so that we have knowledge as early as possible to prevent further spread against staff, residents, or visitors.

As always, if you have any signs, symptoms, or fever of 100.4 or above, we ask that you hold off on visiting until symptoms are cleared. Please ensure if you are visiting, that you are filling out the sign in screening and wearing a mask upon entering the community.

If you have been informed that a loved one has tested positive, then only essential visitors will be allowed to visit until they test negative.

Please ensure that if you are visiting, to wear a mask and remain 6 ft apart from other residents.

We are working very hard to keep it out of our communities but unfortunately, it is becoming increased in positive cases for not only the unvaccinated but also the vaccinated.

CelesteCare remains committed to utilizing our infection control policies and to the safety of our residents. We appreciate your patients as we work through the staffing that might be affected by this infection.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Sincerely,

Jessice Vaughn Interim Director
