COVID Update

December 11, 2020

Farmington Health Services tested all residents and staff for COVID-19 this week. Employee test results are still pending.  We are following recommendations from the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH), the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC) and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).

Results from this week’s testing are below. 

  • Trinity Care Center – 0 positive residents, 0 positive employees
  • Trinity Terrace – 0 positive tenant, 0 positive employees
  • Trinity Suites – 0 positive tenants, 0 positive employees

We are eagerly awaiting the arrival of COVID-19 vaccines pending approval by the FDA. We anticipate this will occur before the end of December.  We appreciate and support the decision made by the federal government to prioritize long-term care residents and staff in the distributions of the COVID-19 vaccine. Our vaccination process for staff and residents will be based on guidance from MDH as well as official CDC recommendations that have yet to be released and we will share this with you very soon! 

The beginning of December brought a surge of cases throughout Minnesota.  Please help us protect our staff and residents by wearing a mask and social distancing.  We again ask that you refrain from taking your loved one home over the Christmas holiday and schedule video visits with Joy at 651.460.1166.

Please contact me with any questions or concerns.
