Covid-19 Virtual Visits
We will be setting up virtual visits in the near future. These visits will be scheduled just like the outdoor visits. There will be specific times, where we will have the resident available to virtually visit in a common area, with staff assisting the resident with set up. The visits can be up to 30 minutes in length and we will be able to do this through Facetime (if you have an apple device) or Zoom. At the time you schedule your virtual visit, we will determine your preferred contact method. You can begin scheduling visits with the receptionist on Wednesday November 18th. Our hope is that we can start the virtual visits as soon as the isolation period has ended. Window visits are not permissible at this time, however if you do come to the facility it imperative that you wear a mask and the window remains closed the entire time. If you are observed not wearing a mask or windows are observed being opened, you will be asked to leave the property. We do not want to sound harsh, however it is our job to protect these residents and we appreciate all of your cooperation with following our requests.
With the holiday season is fast approaching, we would like to share a few things with all of you. We are working on ways to make this extra special for the residents this year, since we can’t have visitors come in to eat with them. We strongly discourage both the residents and families not to attend gatherings outside the facility. However, with that being said, if you do plan or insist on taking a resident out, we have developed guidelines that you and the resident will need to follow while out and upon return. If you do plan on taking a family member out for the day, please be sure to contact Jennifer or Rachel. At that time, we will discuss all the guidelines that will be required for taking your family member out and you can determine whether you still want to proceed with the plan.
As always, thank you for your understanding, support and trust in Morgan Estates. If you have suggestions, ideas, anything you may want to share please reach out, we would love to hear them. Look for updates in your emails, Facebook page and website for new information.
Stay Safe,
Jennifer Perelli
