Covid 19 Update: June 8, 2020
June 8, 2020
Dear Family Members and Friends,
Thank you for the support this weekend regarding the inaccurate COVID-19 numbers. We are appreciative of our relationship with our staff, families, and friends of Jones-Harrison. Today, we are reporting cumulative numbers since the start of March. Please note that all residents and staff have been tested twice and that the numbers represent totals for positive cases, residents passed away and residents recovered. We currently have seven people from the Care Center in isolation.
Care Center
Total positive Total passed away Totaled Recovered
45 residents 18 (as of 6/8) 20
Assisted Living

6 tenants 2 4
Staff
Total positive Number still out
32 12
We feel that with continued testing of all staff and residents, we are heading in a good direction. This testing will now be done by our own staff at Jones-Harrison, after we finish working with the National Guard this week. We know that testing and PPE will be our two greatest weapons to fight COVID-19.
Jones-Harrison will continue steady communications going through these times; however, we will move to a once per week update on Wednesdays beginning on June 17th. We will send a final Thursday update with our testing results this week. We will always communicate if major changes occur or we have announcements. I have greatly appreciated the questions and comments you have sent and the words of encouragement to all of us.
Sincerely,
Annette Greely, President/CEO
