The Covid Contact questionnaire completed prior to entry. LPA observed the Staff and Resident sign in and Covid Symptom Screening log. LPA entered through the central entry point where hand sanitizer and visitor symptom screening was conducted.

All residents and staff members are fully vaccinated.
LPA toured the facility inside and out. Required postings to encourage face coverings and hand washing were observed. Furniture in common and dining areas are spaced to promote distancing.
