**Updated April 13th, 2021**

I hope you’re doing well and are able to enjoy this mild spring weather we’re experiencing.

We are excited that our staff have been willing to become vaccinated for COVID-19 to promote patient safety in the Center. Our current staff vaccination rate is approximately 86% as of today’s report.  We continue to promote and encourage staff and patient vaccination and hope this is encouraging to you.

As previously reported, we are now able to provide COVID-19 vaccination on an on-going basis to staff and patients. We will be receiving doses of vaccine from our pharmacy partner.  We will not be receiving the vaccine that is manufactured by Johnson & Johnson while it is being studied further by the FDA. It is our hope that making the vaccine available on-site will encourage continued vaccination participation among our patients and staff.

County Positivity Rate: Increased to 5.2%.
Testing Frequency for Staff and Patients:
Staff and patients are tested every 3-7 days while in an outbreak until the Center is 14 days without a positive test result.
PPE:
The supply remains adequate. Staff receive on-going education on appropriate PPE utilization.
Visitation:
Virtual, window and scheduled indoor and outdoor visitation are all currently available at the Center. Click this link to schedule a visit: https://lee-rehab.com/patient-visitations/.
*Previous cumulative data on COVID-19 may be found on the Center’s website: https://lee-rehab.com/.

As always, please feel free to reach out with any questions you may have.

Sincerely,

Ashley Jones, BSN, RN, LNHA
