COVID-19 Information Center

  • Mask Gudelines

    Masks are not required, but remain recommended during certain "high-risk" times. These recommendations are determined by county transmission rate and active neighborhood cases, per regulation:

    • Red = High. Masks recommended.
    • Yellow = Moderate. Masks optional.
    • Green = Low. Masks not required.

    Signs will be posted at all main entrances and high-traffic areas to keep you informed on the status of the area through which you are traveling.


    We recommend you keep a mask on you at all times, as mask status can change throughout neighborhoods and buildings. 


    Please note that conditions may change at any time.


  • Visitation Guidelines

    • Indoor visitation is allowed for all Senior Housing communities.
    • Visitors are no longer required to complete a health screening upon entrance. (We will continue to provide screening supplies for those who prefer to screen and/or those questioning symptoms.)
    • There is no limit on number of visitors per day, frequency of visits, or length of visits.
    • Visitors will need to follow the guidelines for masking. 
    • Visitors are free to meet/gather with loved ones throughout campus and utilize amenities with no restrictions.
    • As always, we ask that if visitors are experiencing any respiratory or ill-like symptoms, that they postpone their visit until they are well. This is not just a COVID-19 precaution, but also to protect our vulnerable population against influenza and other respiratory illness. If you are visibly ill and seen on-campus, you may be politely asked to reschedule your visit. This is for the safety of everyone.

    These policies are subject to change at any time.

  • Exposure Guidelines

    New residents or residents that have been exposed to someone that tested positive for COVID-19 do not need to quarantine. 


    If your loved one is experiencing ill-like symptoms or have had known exposure to someone COVID-19 positive, they should still:

    • Self-monitor and get tested.  This is for their safety, as well as everyone at Country Manor. 
    • Mask at all times while in the building, especially when around others.

    Country Manor will continue to perform contact tracing on any/all active cases within the building. Testing will be performed based on current guidelines and safety precautions. 


  • Duration of Transmission-Based Precautions

    The following are criteria to determine when Transmission-Based Precautions could be discontinued for patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection and are influenced by severity of symptoms and presence of immunocompromising conditions. Patients should self-monitor and seek re-evaluation if symptoms recur or worsen.  If symptoms recur (e.g., rebound), these patients should be placed back into isolation until they again meet the healthcare criteria below to discontinue Transmission-Based Precautions for SARS-CoV-2 infection unless an alternative diagnosis is identified.


    In general, patients who are hospitalized for SARS-CoV-2 infection should be maintained in Transmission-Based Precautions for the time period described for patients with severe to critical illness.


    In general, patients should continue to wear source control until symptoms resolve or, for those who never developed symptoms, until they meet the criteria to end isolation below. Then they should revert to usual facility source control policies for patients.


    Patients with mild to moderate illness who are not moderately to severely immunocompromised:

    • At least 10 days have passed since symptoms first appeared and
    • At least 24 hours have passed since last fever without the use of fever-reducing medications and
    • Symptoms (e.g., cough, shortness of breath) have improved

    Patients who were asymptomatic throughout their infection and are not moderately to severely immunocompromised:

    • At least 10 days have passed since the date of their first positive viral test.

    Patients with severe to critical illness and who are not moderately to severely immunocompromised:

    • At least 10 days and up to 20 days have passed since symptoms first appeared and
    • At least 24 hours have passed since last fever without the use of fever-reducing medications and
    • Symptoms (e.g., cough, shortness of breath) have improved
    • The test-based strategy as described for moderately to severely immunocompromised patients below can be used to inform the duration of isolation.

  • Off-Campus Recommendations

    Residents are free to leave campus. Per MDH, residents will no longer be required to quarantine after leaving campus for essential/non-essential reasons. 


    If residents are made aware of exposure during off-campus outing, they should notify their Housing Coordinator as soon as possible and seek the advice of their medical professional.
