A MESSAGE FROM OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, ANGIE NELSON September 25, 2020

Dear Resident/Family Member/Responsible Party:

I am reaching out to let you know how we are responding to recent visitation guidance issued by the federal agency, CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services). CMS has given the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) 30 days to determine how this fits into their existing guidance. I ask you for your continued patience as we wait for MDH to provide further direction to use in modifying our own visitation policies. I thank you so much for your support and understanding the past 7 months! 

The CMS guidance has specific criteria to help us determine when we can safely re-open to visitors. Our decisions about reopening Halstad Living Center to visitors needs to be based on careful monitoring of data and COVID-19 cases here, in our local community, and in our county

Our county is currently experiencing a slight increase in the number of positive cases. I will factor this into our planning.  

I understand the toll these past months have taken on you and your family. As difficult as it may be, I ask that you give our team at Halstad Living Center the time we need to carefully review the federal guidance as well as recommendations from the MDH to make sure we are reopening as safely as possible.  If you have questions about our process or if you want more details, please feel free to contact me at any time.

Please know we continue to offer outdoor visitation, window visits and visits through technology, as well as support compassionate care visits and essential caregivers for designated residents, in an on-going effort to decrease the impact decreased visitation may have on residents.

The coming cooler months will continue to challenge us in limiting the impact of COVID-19 on our community. You are key partners in this effort, and I truly appreciate your patience as we prepare to host safe visits and other activities.  We all look forward to the days ahead when we’re able to enjoy the simple pleasures of hugs, handshakes, and warm in-person greetings again. Personally, I cannot wait for that day! ☺

Thank you again for being partners with us in fighting the COVID-19 virus. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me at 218-456-2105 or angienelson@rrv.net if you have any questions or concerns. 

With kind regards and a grateful heart,

Angie Nelson, Executive Director, LNHA, HSE
