Dear Jeanne Jugan Community,

Just a brief update:

The Home partnered with Stop and Shop Pharmacy to administer COVID boosters to residents and staff on August 3rd. Ninety-nine percent of our Residents are up-to-date with COVID-19 vaccine and approximately 60% of our Staff. The CDC definition of up-to-date is as follows: 1). the series of two vaccines and one booster for persons under the age of 50 years, and 2). the series of two vaccines and two boosters for persons over the age of 50 years.

Staff who are not up-to-date will need to be tested twice a week for surveillance. The Home identified one staff member with mild symptoms who tested positive yesterday. None of our Residents are showing any signs or symptoms of COVID.

Despite the low activity of COVID in the community, the transmission rate in congregate settings is still considered high. All our staff members are to wear N-95 masks, continue good hand hygiene practices and social distancing.

Thank you for your continued prayers and support!

Mother Patricia Metzgar
