When several residents came down with a GI virus and two with upper respiratory flu, KoH Management and the Residents Association decided to take sensible precautionary measures to stem the spread.
The Bistro was closed for dining. Take-out was instituted for independent residents. For those residing in Adirondack, meal service is taking place in the country kitchen. Sunnyside and Clearwater residents continue to dine in their respective dining rooms as usual. The Resident Association, to discourage further spread of any illness, has canceled group activities and Committee meetings. Signage has been posted restricting casual visitors and requesting that only immediate family members and designated parties visit for the time being.
Follow-up notes are being distributed to all residents to keep them up to date on the situation.
It was decided that these precautions would be in place until Monday morning Jan. 15 when a decision will be made as to whether or not it is safe to resume normal activities.
