Information regarding resident rules and regulations as shared by Management are as follows:

Beginning March 1st:

• Independent residents may once again eat and drink together in apartments.

Please limit gatherings to four resident guests per apartment, regardless of your reason for gathering.

Consider the size and seating arrangement of the apartment in which you are visiting. While the number of resident guests may be four, it is still important to ensure that 6-foot social distancing can be maintained.

• Kendal’s quarantine protocols for Independent Living Residents will change.

Going forward, quarantine protocols will be:

  • For visits to the Emergency Room – NO quarantine

  • For inpatient hospital stays – 5 days after discharge

  • For discharge from Clearwater to IL – to be determined case by case

  • For COVID positive individuals – 14 days

  • For known COVID exposures – NO quarantine required if vaccinated

REMINDER: Final COVID-19 vaccine clinics offered through the Federal initiative are scheduled for Tuesday, March 2 and Wednesday, March 3. Only second doses will be administered. If you are due for your second dose, you will be contacted regarding time and location for the vaccine.

The Future (i.e. mid-March and beyond...) Until all second doses are administered, the Bistro will remain as take-out only. We are looking ahead to the middle of March to resume seated dining.

Social (non-resident) visitation to all areas of Kendal on Hudson currently remains on pause. We eagerly anticipate welcoming visitors back to independent living once our vaccination clinics are complete and fullest efficacy of the vaccines is achieved.
