Planning to visit a nursing home resident?

COVID-19 rules for visiting nursing homes have recently changed in California.

Visitors must now show BOTH proof of vaccination (and booster if eligible) AND a recent negative COVID-19 test.

Anyone visiting with a nursing home resident outdoors only must only show a negative test.

Some exceptions apply, so please view the image shown below.

This is terribly explained imo. We have visited 2 different facilities to visit relatives since this started. 1st one they said we could visit outside and only had to wear a mask (no mention of negative test requested). 2nd place we visited a mixed use community that has independent people and those needing assistance. Nothing requested and we moved freely in the halls with masks on.

Disgusting. Just disgusting.

I truly hate newscum. He is an evil despot.

I am so happy we were able to get my mother out of the reach of Gavin’s Goons! People in the facility where she was living were treated quite well by the staff, but the physical isolation from family and even other residents was quite literally killing people.

Here’s the bottom line. Almost everyone in these facilities is ready to meet their maker. They aren’t afraid of death. But they are afraid of slowly dying alone and untouched, in a room that feels like a coffin in Purgatory.

@ chuckie the troll~
+1 Very important for residents to have family members visit.
Back in 2002 – 2004 we would visit Hubby’s Mother every day.
Plus, would visit some folks that didn’t have visitors.

Liberals always want to be like Europe. Well Gavin, the UK just stopped all the COVID garbage. Pony up dude!

Was California one of the States which Forced nursing homes to accept positive cases…….condemning all of the existing residents to death?

Notice that Boris Johnson is Dropping All of the Covid measures….because it was a huge FAILURE.

Wow.. Great job Dr. F and Anna Roth!!!! Let the old people live alone without friends/family coming to visit them if they don’t have the vaccine. Dr. F. and Anna Roth are very sick people and their understanding of Public Health is that of a 1st grader.. NO COVID they scream as they let old people, and sick people, rot in loneliness. Shame on both of them and the BOS for keeping them employees.

I’d like to hear the settled-science backing this measure, given under oath, with an opportunity for cross-examination by Scott Atlas.

Hmmm January 20, 2022 - 10:21 AM - 10:21 AM

Does the staff need to follow the same guidelines? Oh yeah I forgot, it’s ok for health care workers to go to work with a positive test if they’re asymptotic and if they’re exposed to covid they don’t have to test…oh yeah and I’m they can return back to work in 5 days without a covid test if they’re feeling better. Make it make sense!!!!!! So sad for the patients in nursing homes.

These two images give inconsistent policies: the first one says vaccination AND a negative test while the second says vaccination OR a negative test. So what gives?

Also, this is bat guano crazy if it means an unvaxxed adult won’t be permitted to be in the hospital with their own child when the child is the patient. WTH. That is unethical in the extreme.

Big picture: the vax doesn’t stop transmission! So these vax passport policies make no sense. You are not ‘safe’ from the possibility of infection just because the people around you are vaxxed.

WC Resident January 20, 2022 - 1:02 PM - 1:02 PM

One of the policies is for nursing homes (using the word AND) and the other is for hospitals (using the word OR). The usage of AND vs. OR makes sense to me as the long term care facilities tend to have patients at extreme risk should they be exposed to COVID-19.

I agree though that the two sets of rules should not be together on the same notice.

I’m more irritated that it fails to cite a source for more details. If something gets printed and put on the wall or front door of a facility people can’t click the line that says “Read the full requirements.”

I’m guessing the official order is at https://tinyurl.com/2t7bb846

This must be what Biden meant when talked about a “dark winter”…forcing seniors to die alone and in despair

Newsom would dump an elderly person on the side of the road if he wouldn’t get caught, rather than give them happiness in their.end times.

Jay Roller January 20, 2022 - 6:31 PM - 6:31 PM

Wow and just how do all you people who got shots feel now lol 😂

If it saves just one life, it’ll be worth it!

Two weeks to stop the spread!
