Grand Court continues to remain COVID free. Thank you to all who have continued to follow the rules and guidelines to help keep each of our residents and staff safe. Although the restrictions are a sacrifice for all, it has help Grand Court quickly stop the outbreak. Tomorrow is our second COVID Vaccine Clinic with Walgreens.
We have some great news. We currently have only one resident still on isolation protocols due to a previous positive test result. The last two quarantining employees are scheduled to return to work in a few days. We now have the date of our initial vaccine clinic for our residents and staff. It will take place on January 21, 2021 between 9am to 2pm.
Thank you for your patience as we work through the transition in leadership and as we address the current surge in cases within our Community and the country as a whole. Tomorrow (12/23) had been set to allow resident quarantine and visitation restrictions to be lifted. However, as we continue to have residents and staff test positive for the virus, we cannot make these changes tomorrow as our priority is to ensure this virus is contained and further spread is prevented or mitigated…
