Hello Village at Marymount Families, Friends, and Staff. This is Sue Nall the Executive Director.

We had a small break from COVID and unfortunately, we had two new staff cases during the past weekend. We have started contact tracing and testing per the new protocols. All residents and staff who were contact traced to have contact with the positive staff members were tested on November 20 and all were negative. We will test again on November 23.

Our COVID update since March 2020: Villa St. Joseph has 2 Active staff and or Resident Cases. We had a total of 240 resident or staff cases. Memory Care Assisted Living at Villa St Joseph has 0 active Resident or Staff cases and a cumulative total of 20 cases. Marymount Place has 1 Active Resident or Staff cases and a cumulative total of 51 resident/staff cases.

We will continue to monitor all staff and residents for signs and symptoms of COVID. If you have any cold-, flu-, or COVID-like symptoms, or know you have been exposed to COVID, we ask that you not visit your loved one at this time. Respiratory syncytial virus, or RSV, and the flu also have had a significant impact on our residents and their health status.

The next COVID vaccine clinic is Thursday, December 1. Forms are due by 2 p.m. Tuesday, November 29 and are available at the Villa St. Joseph reception desk. There is a new form available, so please do not use an old form. We will also be posting more flu vaccines administration times for staff this week.

As we enter the holiday season, please continue to wear masks in crowds, wash your hands, and keep your distance if you can. We want everyone to enjoy the holidays but also to keep our residents healthy.
