To Villa Siena Families of Residents and Staff:
We have 2 residents with Covid 19 in our assisted living building. We have tested everyone else; as of right now, everyone else is negative. We have been unable to trace the exposure event, so we assume it is someone asymptomatic that visited or was in the facility. Both residents are being monitored and in isolation per Public Health guidelines. We will continue testing throughout the week according to our infection prevention protocol. The testing will continue for at least 2 weeks until we get the all-clear from the Public Health Department.
We will allow visitation to continue with careful screening and the continued recommendation to stay masked during the visits and choose outdoors as the preferred visit location.
We will also hold the booster clinic for the second Covid 19 booster (4th shot) for any resident who wishes to have one. It is recommended for everyone in our facility. The clinic will be on Sunday, August 14th. We ask residents or families to let us know if they have any objections to taking the booster or if they are already boosted so that we can confirm our appointment list for that day.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Corine Bernard, Executive Director, at 650-318-5809 or cbernard@villa-siena.org or Ann Kaye, Director of Nursing, at 650 318 5838 or akaye@villa-siena.org.
