• Safety precautions have been escalated on NCC South and include a 14 day quarantine for clients in two shared rooms on the unit with close monitoring of their health status.
• Visitation at NCC North, South, and Heavlin remains suspended and will resume on October 28th pending no additional positive cases.
• Weekly outbreak testing will continue for all staff and clients at NCC North, South, and Heavlin regardless of vaccination status until we are COVID free for 14 days.
• All community outings remain temporarily suspended at this time. Only essential physician appointments are allowed and will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
• As a reminder, we continue to track our client and staff pending and confirmed cases on the COVID-19 page of our website.
