6-15-2021 Update: On June 15th, Governor Cuomo lifted many of the restrictions that have been in place for over a year. His message was “we’re returning to normal.”
Unfortunately, there were no changes made for nursing home residents or employees, and still not close to ‘normal’. All COVID related precautions remain; including:
- Limitations on visitation
- Screening procedures for all
- Restrictions on resident movement in the building
- Social distancing – including during resident activities and meals
- Use of masks at all times
- Resident masking
Fort Hudson has achieved a remarkably high vaccination rate – 98% for residents and almost 90% for staff. We will remain vigilant in our efforts to protect our residents, and look forward to being able to join the rest of the state in ‘returning to normal’. Until then, we appreciate your understanding and cooperation in following our required standards.
