COVID-19
Communities that serve seniors are at an increased risk for COVID-19.
We remain committed to the health and safety of our staff and residents, while keeping our community informed. Early on we addressed this by putting a number of policies and procedures in place that focused on the safety of our residents and staff.
Thank you to the dedicated staff that work even harder now during this pandemic to keep our residents safe and happy – you are truly Heroes.
Below you’ll find information about the restrictions in place, what we’re doing to keep our residents engaged and active, and helpful links and contacts for more information.
You can also sign up for our email list and receive updates about what’s happening at Three Pillars and specifically around COVID-19.
If you have any questions, please contact Diana Marquardt, RN, our Infection Preventionist, RN at dmarquardt@threepillars.org
Thank you.
Mark Strautman, President & CEO
