  • Testing on all remaining skilled and assisted living residents who have not yet been tested for COVID-19.

We are deeply saddened to report that, since our last letter, two additional residents who had tested positive have passed away. Our community is grieving their loss and praying for their families.

We have also learned of an individual in residential living that has test positive and is now in quarantine in their apartment. In addition, we have followed up with the very few individuals who they may have had contact with and will continue to monitor them for symptoms. 

As stated in the past, we remain in contact with local and state health authorities as well as the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services for guidance on infection control. Our employees are following all of the necessary preventive measures including wearing of masks, gloves, PPE, enhanced cleanings and disinfections in all healthcare rooms, and community-wide in all common areas and the isolation of any resident with symptoms that are consistent with COVID-19.

Our medical director, Dr. Anthony Pipitone has stated that our residents within higher levels of care, many with underlying health issues, are the most vulnerable and he has praised our health care employees for their ongoing commitment and dedication in caring and service to our residents.

We continue to monitor all residents and employees who may exhibit any symptoms consistent with COVID-19 and, if necessary, ask that they reach out to their personal physicians for medical advice. We thank all of our residents and employees for their continued vigilance with physical distancing, hand washing, and doing what you can and must do to stay healthy.

Update:  4/8/2020

Covenant Living at Windsor Park is reporting additional cases of positive COVID-19 test results of residents within skilled nursing and assisted living at its community. There is one additional case in assisted living and five more in skilled nursing. Unfortunately, given the vulnerable age of the residents, two additional individuals with underlying health issues, have passed away.

“We are deeply saddened by the loss of these individuals and offer our deepest condolences to their families,” said Ben Stevens, executive director at Covenant Living at Windsor Park. “The population we serve within higher levels of care are most at risk and it is heartbreaking to have these sorts of outcomes. Our staff is committed to all of the necessary precautions to prevent any further spread of the virus.”

Covenant Living at Windsor Park remains in close contact with the DuPage County Health Department as well as the Illinois Department of Public Health for guidance on infection control. As COVID-19 testing is more available and with results coming in quicker, the community is prepared that additional cases will be reported. At this time, there is no recommendation from health authorities for testing of individuals for those who do not show symptoms that are consistent with the virus.

LeadingAge Illinois, a statewide association which supports senior living and services providers in the state, is monitoring the COVID-19 situation very closely and the impact it is having. It’s president, Karen Messer, says the association has made a request with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid for a waiver under section 1135 of the Social Security Act.

“We understand that healthcare workers are the frontline in the defense of caring for residents in skilled nursing and assisted living communities,” said Messer. “Our request would be for those workers in health care to have priority access to COVID-19 testing—just another step in helping to prevent the spread of the virus.”

LeadingAge Illinois has not received any decision on its request.

“Our healthcare employees are wearing full PPE when interacting with residents who are in isolation with any symptoms that are consistent with COVID-19 and they are also wearing masks throughout their shifts,” added Stevens. “We have increased our daily cleanings with disinfectants for infection control, and are doing everything in our power to mitigate this situation.”

Covenant Living is diligently working on obtaining additional PPE through vendors on a state, national, and international level. Shipments have been ordered and are beginning to arrive with additional hand sanitizer, N95 respirators and surgical masks, and gowns needed for healthcare workers.

Covenant Living at Windsor Park’s medical director, Dr. Anthony Pipitone has also been working closely with the community as a resource and providing additional medical advice for the healthcare team as well as for the residents there.

“We have offered the use of hydroxychloroquine to all of our affected patients. Several have recovered and are now back at Johnson Healthcare Center, resuming their rehab. Currently, our COVID+ patients are stable and tolerating the treatment well, but need to be monitored closely day-to-day, which we are doing,” said Dr. Pipitone. “Our nurses, techs, therapists and administration have performed in a truly heroic fashion, coming to work each day knowing that they are treating infected patients. It’s not an easy thing to walk into a room knowing that patient has a highly infectious virus and yet they return to do it day after day.”  

Because of visitor restrictions, Covenant Living at Windsor Park understands that family members are concerned about their loved ones, especially those in skilled nursing and assisted living. For residents who would like to communicate with their family, employees have been helping to schedule opportunities to conduct FaceTime sessions

“It is important to help residents and families connect during this crisis as there are plenty of emotions due the visitor restrictions,” said Stevens. “A visit over FaceTime isn’t the same as in person, but family members do understand the importance of the restrictions and the need to keep this virus from spreading.”

The health and safety of residents and employees is the highest priority of Covenant Living at Windsor Park, and all of the latest information regarding safeguards again the coronavirus will be monitored from local and state health authorities as well as the CMS and CDC.

Since the last update, we have had seven additional residents in our skilled nursing area and three more employees who have tested positive for COVID-19.  In addition, we are saddened to report that, although dealing with additional health issues, we did have our third person with COVID-19 pass away.  Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of the families impacted by this virus.

As we shared before, given the nature of this virus and with the increased availability of COVID-19 testing in our hospitals now, we are prepared for additional positive test results as we continue to do all we can to stop the spread.
