CMS has provided updated guidance regarding visitation following recent COVID-19 vaccinations. Effective 11/13/2021, Stonehill Communities Health Center will allow visitors for all residents at all times, regardless of Outbreak Status. Families are encouraged to schedule visits among themselves to help us limit the number of visitors in the facility at one time and allow for physical distance.
All visitors will need to follow COVID-19 Infection Prevention strategies that include:
o Screening of all who enter the facility for signs and symptoms of COVID-19 (e.g., temperature checks, questions or observations about signs or symptoms), and denial of entry of those with signs or symptoms
o Hand hygiene (use of alcohol-based hand rub) before and after visit
o Mask covering mouth and nose (visitors may remove their masks in the resident room if all parties have been fully vaccinated)
Please call 563-557-7180 and speak with social work staff if you have questions.
