Skilled Nursing (Healthcare Center)

We are currently testing all staff and residents in accordance with state and federal guidelines. All staff are screened for signs and symptoms of COVID-19 (including temperature) upon arrival to work. We have established quarantine and isolation procedures for both staff and residents in accordance with Pennsylvania Department of Health and CMS guidance. All staff having direct contact with residents are required to adhere to stringent Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) requirements.

In-person visitation is currently open for all units.   Virtual visitation is still available.  To schedule a virtual visit, please contact Teresa Good at (717-664-6272).

 

Healthcare Visitation Guidelines:

• Healthcare visitors must enter at the main entrance (Door #1)
• Residents are permitted to have a maximum of two visitors at one time.  Pets are permitted during visitation, but limited to one pet per visitation.  Pet vaccination records must be presented at the time of sign-in.
• Visitors are required to sign in and answer screening questions, including a temperature screen upon arrival and sign out upon departure.  All visitors will be required to sanitize their hands upon entry and exit of our facilities.
• Please bring a mask. Well-fitting masks that cover the entire mouth and nose must be worn at all times while in our buildings and during visitation regardless of vaccination status
• Visitors bringing food or drink items for resident or visitor consumption during the visitation is prohibited.
• Visitors must remain in the visitation area at all times and are not permitted in other areas of the building/campus.

We realize nothing beats the warm embrace between a resident and their loved one. Therefore, if the resident is fully vaccinated, they can choose to have close contact (including touch) with their visitor while wearing a well-fitting face mask and performing hand hygiene before and after contact.  We ask that all visitors maintain a safe distance between themselves and other residents as well as staff.

Visits will be monitored for compliance with our visitation guidelines.  Visitors not adhering to the guidelines may have visitation privileges suspended to ensure the safety of our residents and staff.

Communal dining and group activities have resumed in accordance with CMS and Department of Health Guidelines.

Personal Care 

Terrace Gardens and the Meadows are both open to in-person visitation. Visitation appointments are not necessary.  To limit movement and avoid crowds of people in the building, we are limiting the number of visitors to two per resident at a time for indoor visitation. Outdoor visits, generally, are the safest way to visit. We encourage outdoor visits, as weather permits. If you would like to have more than two visitors at one time (no more than ten), an outdoor visit is required.

Visiting Hours:

Monday-Friday:  9:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m.

Saturday:  10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.

Sunday:  1:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.

 

Personal Care Visitation Guidelines:

• All visitors will be required to complete a thermal screen and COVID-related screening questions at the Terrace Gardens #4 entrance. Postpone or cancel your visit if you are not feeling well.
• After screening, visitors must sign in at the Terrace Gardens Sign-In station (date, name of visitor, name of resident, and arrival and departure time). Visitors will be issued a visitor tag, which must be worn at all times while on campus.
• All visitors will be required to sanitize their hands upon entry and exit of our facilities.
• Bring a mask. A well-fitting mask must be worn at all times that is fully covering the mouth and nose.
• Pets are permitted during visitation, but limited to one pet per visit. Pet vaccination records must be on file with the front desk.
• Before leaving the building, remember to sign out at the Terrace Gardens Sign-In Station.

If the Terrace Gardens door is locked, please ring the doorbell and be patient.

Visits will be monitored for compliance with our visitation guidelines.  Visitors not adhering to the guidelines may have visitation suspended to ensure the safety of our residents and staff.

Our ability to offer visitation to our residents can be affected by the local county positivity rate as well as our current COVID-19 cases in our facility.  If visitation is not permitted, families will be contacted and our website updated.
