At this time, based on federal guidance, indoor visits are permitted into our community Health Care Centers.
The well-being of our residents and staff is always a top priority at Friends House Retirement Community. Friends House has long been prepared for these types of events, not just with its own policies, procedures and flexibility to adapt — but also through its communications with other local health systems as well as the CDC and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
Our focus is on infection prevention and control. Please follow these well-advised guidelines:
Do not visit if you have:
- Fever
- Cough
- Shortness of breath
- Sore throat
- Congestion
- Gastro-intestinal symptoms
- A feeling of illness, such as cold or flu onset
We greatly value and appreciate the opportunity to serve those entrusted to our care, and we do so with competent, caring and compassionate staff who seek to make a positive difference in the lives of those we serve.
Thank you for your support and understanding.
