Dear Residents, Families and Staff,
COVID-19:
The COVID-19 positivity rates in Pennsylvania have been decreasing. The Pennsylvania positivity rate has decreased to 9.7% from 12.7%. In Philadelphia County the rate is currently 4.5%. Last week the rate was 6.5%. With these numbers I still encourage everyone to make good decisions regarding visitations and outings.
Visitation:
Effective today, we are allowing visitors who are 5 years of age or older.
We encourage all who visit to be vaccinated.
Your cooperation and adherence to infection control guidelines is needed.
- Visitors who have a positive COVID-19 test, symptoms of COVID-19 or currently meet the criteria for quarantine (exposed, potentially positive) should not enter WEL Burholme.
- Hand hygiene (hand sanitizing) and face mask (covering the mouth and nose) is required at all times.
- Six feet distance between people is required.
- All visitors must be screened upon entering and exiting WEL Burholme.
Thank you and stay WEL!
Daniel Frost
Executive Director
