Visitations Update - Best Practices in Safety and Cleanliness 

Families of our nursing homes, assisted and independent living residents may now reunite with their loved ones through outdoor visitations, following all safety directives.  Visits may be coordinated through the life enrichment departments at each residence.

Plans are being developed for indoor visitation that will be communicated soon. 

Residences are engaging in best practices of cleanliness and safety following guidance of the Centers for Disease Control, the Ohio Department of Health and medical professionals. 

As part of Ohio’s efforts to provide additional resources to nursing homes, the state has implemented an infection control checklist and an ongoing auditing process along with mandated testing for staff.Surveyors have conducted audits that have resulted in approval of our practices. 

Our Assisted Living and Long-term care residences received a national Commitment to Quality Award by the American Health Care Association and National Center for Assisted Living (AHCA/NCAL). The bronze award received honors providers that have demonstrated their commitment to improving the quality of care for adults as they age and individuals with disabilities.

Distancing Doesn't Mean Complete Isolation.  Our staff is busy making sure no one feels isolated, and family-time is as important as ever!  Please know you can still connect with your loved one!  Through letters, phone, Skype, Facebook and other forms of social media, you can still have conversations and even facetime to brighten their day.  We want to make sure everyone can still be in contact, even if virtually.  You can send email to our life enrichment team and we will print them out and make sure your loved ones receive them!  Email to:  KSkerl@menorahpark.org. 

We are also helping residents write letters to their loved ones.  If you haven't updated your email, do so by emailing Kim your new email and home addresses.  KSkerl@menorahpark.org.
