Help Us Bring Holiday Joy To Residents

By Creating Winter Wonderland

Make A Gift Now!

It is hard to believe the holidays are upon us and 2020 is coming to an end. This year has been one plagued with trials and tribulations none of us could have imagined. And yet with our faith and trust in God, the team at The Village at Marymount held true to its Mission – providing an environment of compassion, competence and the celebration of life to all entrusted to our community of care.

COVID-19 continues to have a firm grip on Ohio and the holidays will certainly look very different; with family gatherings and visitations limited (at best) or eliminated.

The Village at Marymount remains committed to providing compassionate care and valuing each resident’s life. This commitment includes the intentional perpetuation of holiday traditions. While we can’t bring families together – WITH YOUR HELP – WE CAN provide an environment filled with holiday cheer!

Help us turn our campus into a Winter Wonderland – and in doing so, lift the spirits of our residents (your loved ones) and our team members. One hundred percent (100%) of funds raised will be utilized to transform the hallways, courtyards, and campus grounds into a Winter Wonderland (decorations up in early December).

UPDATE: Cases Reported During Testing 

This year has been extremely challenging for all of us – to say the least. With the prayers of the Sisters of St. Joseph of the Third Order of St. Francis, our weekly blessings from Bishop Roger, commitment from our staff, and your patience, we continue to fare well as we navigate the COVID-19 landscape.

Now that the Ohio National Guard has conducted COVID-19 testing for Villa St. Joseph staff, we are offering structured visitation for Villa St. Joseph residents and families. To schedule a visit, please call us at 216-332-1100 between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. Monday through Friday. Representatives can sign up for one (1) visit per week, and a maximum of two (2) visitors will be permitted at one time.

In addition to having staff tested for the coronavirus, we are required to consider the following measures which may alter our visitation plan:

• Case status in the surrounding community

• Case status in the nursing home

• Staffing levels

• Access to adequate testing for residents and staff

• Personal protective equipment supplies

• Local hospital capacity

The decision to move forward with outdoor visitation considered requests from families and residents and the impact on the quality of life that a prolonged loss of connection can have on an individual. The plan was made in consultation with advocates and providers in the aging and development disabilities communities. Guidelines for visitation were jointly developed by the Academy for Senior Health Sciences, Leading Age Ohio, the Ohio Assisted Living Association, the Ohio Health Care Association, and the Ohio Medical Directors Association.

Please remember COVID-19 is still out there and we must remain vigilant to ensure everyone’s safety. In additional to our structured visitation guidelines, you will also find additional information about this respiratory disease attached.

We know this time has been difficult and we thank you for the wonderful job you have done in helping to keep everyone on campus safe, while abiding by the Governor’s Orders. We appreciate the difficulty of not seeing your family, friends, and loved ones and share in your excitement of being able to reunite, even in a limited manner. We ask that you continue to work with us as we diligently keep your health our priority.

Thank you!

What we know about COVID-19

COVID-19, or coronavirus disease 2019, is a respiratory disease. Symptoms, which generally appear 2-to-14 days after exposure, include cough or shortness of breath/difficulty breathing. These symptoms range from mild to severe; however, some people with COVID-19 have no symptoms which is why it is so important to wear a mask.

COVID-19 is believed to spread mainly from person-to-person, between people who are in close contact (within about 6-feet) with one another and through respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes. It also may be possible that a person can get COVID-19 by touching a surface or object which has the virus on it and then touching their own mouth, nose, or eyes.

Older adults may show very different signs and symptoms, such as lethargy, disorientation, and general fatigue. Older adults, people with chronic health conditions, and people with compromised immune systems are more likely to become more severely ill, which is why all recommendations should be followed during visitation with your loved one.

What can I do to help prevent the spread of COVID-19

It is vitally important to adhere to policies and procedures. Wear a face mask or face covering, wash your hands with soap and water for 20-seconds frequently, sanitize your hands with hand-sanitizer when washing them is not an option, and remember to social-distance yourself (6-feet apart) when possible.

Resident Face Covering Requirements

Effective June 22, 2020, all short-term residents at The Village at Marymount are required to wear surgical masks during direct care — and when they are out of their rooms participating in an activity or enjoying the common area.

If any resident has a concern with being able to wear a mask given their medical condition, and/or is having difficulty with the mask, then please notify a supervisor so that the issue can be addressed during the resident’s care plan meeting.

Further direction will be announced soon for long-term care resident face coverings.
