Notes from Nursing

With the cold weather and dry air upon us, we would like to remind everyone of our humidifier policy.  Residents that have a humidifier in their room, we ask that one family member oversee cleaning and replacing the filter monthly.  The facility will have housekeeping clean and dust the humidifier weekly.  Replacing the filter monthly helps with infection control.  The filters help slow the growth of mold, but doesn't repel it.  We want to ensure that every resident stays as healthy as possible.  If you have any questions regarding humidifiers, please call or stop in and talk to Hayley or Kristina.

Thank you.
