We have additional residents and one staff member test positive for COVID-19.  The residents have been moved to a dedicated COVID isolation unit and the staff member has not worked since Wednesday.  All other residents have been tested and are all negative.  We will continue to monitor residents for any signs or symptoms; and they will be tested daily for the next seven days.  All employees continue to wear the proper personal protective equipment while in the facility.  We are working closely with the local public health department and have been in communication with the Iowa department of public health. 

We will keep you updated of any changes.
