Visitation Requirements:

THE NEW COVID VARIANT HAS BECOME MORE AGGRESSIVE OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF WEEKS.

THEREFORE, WE ARE RESPECTFULLY REQUESTING THAT ALL VISITORS TEST FOR COVID BEFORE VISITING.

IF POSITIVE, PLEASE REMAIN AT HOME.

PLEASE REMEMBER TO SIGN IN AT THE KIOSK.

ALL VISITORS MUST WEAR MASKS NO EXCEPTIONS.

TEST KITS ARE AVAILABLE FROM THE SECURITY DESK OR YOU MAY USE YOUR OWN.

Continue to physically distance from facility personnel and other patients/residents/visitors that are not directly associated with the specific resident(s) being visited by that individual.

Also, please think about getting your booster. Boosters are available for our residents so if your family member has not yet received their booster, please speak with the unit nurse or the nursing supervisor. For yourselves, the booster is being offered at almost every pharmacy on Staten Island as well as vaccine sites.

Please contact your health professional with any questions.

If you find out after you visited that you are COVID+ or have been in close contact with someone who is COVID+ please notify the facility nursing supervisor immediately.

Please help us keep COVID out of our facility. We are trying to do everything we can to keep your family member safe.

I want to thank you for your assistance and cooperation.

Again, your ongoing support is greatly appreciated.

Stay safe, and remember to consider to be vaccinated and boostered for COVID-19 and Influenza.

The facility has reviewed and updated our Pandemic Emergency Plan which is posted on our website under the Pandemic Emergency Plan tab - if you have any questions please reach out to Administration.

Please read all signage throughout the facility and as you enter a resident room for further instructions. Never enter a room with an isolation sign without first seeing the nurse.
