- Ice Storm - click HERE for photos
The Infirmary weathered the weather well!
An ice storm, downing many power lines, trees and limbs, caused the Infirmary to be without electricity for three days (Jan. 27-30). Roads were nearly impassable, but dedicated employees came to work knowing how desperately their help was needed. Overnight accommodations were made possible for employees and our maintenance crew provided needed transportation for others. Residents were kept warm with the use of a generator and extra blankets. Thankfully, full power was regained around 9 PM Friday evening.
- New Day Room for Second Floor
The Chapel on the Second Floor has been moved from the old wing to the new wing. The room previously used as the Chapel has now been converted to a Day Room for the Second Floor Residents.
- Building Update
Sprinkler System Installation
A sprinkler system is being installed in all of the old wing. Drilling and construction is a bit noisy but necessary in order to provide our residents and staff with the safest environment possible.
- State Survey
