To all Seneca View Residents and Families:
We are contacting you today to let you know that we have had one resident and one direct care staff member test positive for COVID-19. The family of the resident has been informed and the staff member has been removed from the schedule for the required quarantine period. Enhanced precautions are in place and testing continues in accordance with the revised, abbreviated, testing requirements. At this time we have one positive resident and three staff members off for quarantine.
If you have a visit planned, please be advised that additional information and surgical masks will be provided in the facility lobby. We ask for your assistance in helping to make our facility safer for all. Social distancing and infection prevention practices are still highly recommended for all visitors to the nursing home, and we ask that you please postpone your visit if you are exhibiting any signs or symptoms of illness.
Please continue to monitor our website at SCHUYLERHOSPITAL.ORG, and feel free to contact our Nursing Units, the Director of Nursing, or my office if you have any questions. You can also reach our NYS Ombudsman’s Office: Kate Lyon, at 607-274-5437, or, Tricia Chevallard, at (607) 274-5492, if you need.
Warmest Regards,
Patrick J. Ryan
