Dear Families and Friends of our Mullen Home Residents, The Home continues in “outbreak” status related to identification of positive COVID-19 cases among staff. The Home has not had a positive resident COVID-19 case since 1/14/2022. The Home continues to work extremely hard towards ending the current outbreak. With positive cases identified, the Home is required to complete mandatory “outbreak” COVID-19 testing of all residents and staff who have not had COVID-19 within the prior 90 days.

Mullen Home continues to strongly encourage all residents, staff, and visitors who have not yet received the COVID-19 booster and are eligible to please considering doing so. The COVID-19 boosters have proven to reduce the risk of a person contracting COVID-19. It has been proven if a person contracts the virus and is “up to date” with the recommended vaccine doses, the booster has proven to reduce the chances of severe symptoms, as well as reducing the chances of hospitalization and death related to COVID-19.

The Home continues to provide the residents and staff the resources needed in order to obtain any doses of the COVID-19 vaccine, whether it’s providing a clinic here in the home or referring staff to locations in the community they are able to receive vaccine doses.

Within the next few weeks, the Home will be providing a 3rd booster clinic here in the Home coordinated by the Home’s Infection Preventionist. This clinic will be designated for any resident or staff member who desires to receive any dose of the COVID-19 vaccine; which includes additional boosters.

Everyone aged 12 and older should get a third dose of the COVID-19 vaccine at least 5 months after getting Pfizer or Moderna, or a second dose at least 2 months after getting Johnson & Johnson. Some people may now get another dose four months after their third dose:
• People aged 50 and older;
• People aged 12 and older who are moderately to severely immunocompromised;
• People who got the Johnson & Johnson vaccine for both their first and second doses.

As a reminder, visitors should not visit if they have any of the following and have not met the same criteria used to discontinue isolation quarantine for Residents:
1. a positive viral test for SARS-CoV-2;
2. symptoms indicative of COVID-19 or;
3. close contact with someone with SARS-CoV-2 infection.

If you are visiting the Home, please be sure to check the Home’s “Visitor Guidelines” posted throughout the Home which also identifies the Home’s current County Community Transmission Level and how that impacts visitors.

God bless you all.
United in prayer, Sr. Sarah, lsp
