As we have stated in previous updates, Morris Health Services have initiated entire-site testing. Skyview Senior Living residents and their staff were tested on Monday, July 20th, 2020 and West Wind Village residents and their staff was tested Thursday, July 23, 2020. We will continue weekly testing of all residents and staff until we have two consecutive weeks with no additional positive cases.  If we receive any positive tests, we will promptly notify all residents, their family contact and our staff. We will update the community on our results as well as our ongoing work to prevent the spread of COVID-19 via our website (www.mhs.sfhs.org) and our Facebook page.  

Results as of 07/24/2020

We are thrilled to report that all staff and residents from Skyview Senior Living have tested negative for COVID-19.  We are still waiting on the results from the tests at West Wind Village done on Thursday. The resident who had tested positive for CoVid-19 has been transferred to our segregated unit in West Wind Village where they will receive care required to see them through this illness.

You continue to be a key partner in keeping our residents and staff safe. The threat for COVID-19 is still very real and we have seen the devastating impact this virus can have on the long-term care industry. We stand with Governor Walz and ask you to continue to partner with us in wearing a face mask when unable to social distance. This face mask is a simple and effective way we can protect our dedicated staff and residents who are most at-risk for this virus.

We appreciate all the support, prayers, and offers of help that we’ve received. If you have specific questions or concerns, please contact Paula at 320-589-7900 or email her at phenrickson@mhs.sfhs.org.
