Dear Residents, Families, Friends, and Associates of Emerald Court;
Thank you for your continuing support as we work through the challenges of the Coronavirus pandemic. I am writing today to inform you that a resident on our Sapphire side has tested positive for Covid-19. This resident had been quarantined to their apartment prior to being sent to the hospital where they were tested. Today this resident was returned to community and we were informed of the positive test result. This resident will remain in quarantine in their apartment until they have fully recovered and tested negative.
We have reviewed any potential interactions and believe that the risk of exposure to other residents or associates is minimal. Any associates who we believe may have endured prolonged/close contact with this resident have been sent home to monitor for symptoms. At this time, we are asking all residents in Sapphire to self-isolate in their apartments for two weeks. We will discontinue all wellness activities in Sapphire during this time.
As always, we will continue to screen every associate as they report to work and will continue to conduct health screenings for all residents daily. I will keep you updated throughout this period and will welcome any phone calls or messages if you have further questions. Our focus remains on the safety of all residents
and associates and we will continue with our Covid-19 protocols.
Thank you for your continuing support. I will continue to keep you informed.
Patricia Gustin
Executive Director, Emerald Court
