CERTUS Premier Memory Care Living is monitoring COVID-19 updates and has plans in place to react swiftly if the virus would impact our community. The safety of your loved ones is of critical concern to all of us. CERTUS is focused on keeping our residents and associates safe during this time.
We continue to work closely with local, state and federal agencies including the Centers for Medicare Services (CMS), Center for Disease Control (CDC), and the Florida Departments of Health. As such, the following protocols have been implemented:
• Allowing only essential visitors (those providing needed essential care for our residents)
• Essential visitors are screened via COVID-19 questionnaire and temperature is taken
• Residents’ and team members’ temperatures checked daily
• Frequent hand hygiene with soap and water, washing for at least 20 seconds or rubbing hands with alcohol-based sanitizer (60% alcohol or greater)
• Frequent disinfecting of commonly touched environmental surfaces to decrease contamination
• Standard precautions, such as wearing masks, gloves and gowns as situations warrant their use
