On June 25th, Governor Beshear provided guidance to safely open visitation of nursing homes. As part of the reopening initiative, West Liberty Nursing and Rehabilitation will begin to allow visitors on July 17th. However, there are specific guidelines that must be followed. Our top priority is keeping our residents and care team members safe, and we feel the guidelines below will ensure their safety.
Visits must be scheduled by calling the center. No visits will be allowed unless it has been scheduled. Visits will be limited per day and no longer than 30 minutes time per visit.
We will allow only 2 visitors at a time and the visitors must wear masks and practice social distancing at all times which will not allow touching or hugging.
All visits will take place in the front lobby area of the center. Visitors will not be allowed in care areas of the center.
We will also continue to offer scheduled virtual visits via FaceTime and/or Skype.
Please contact Jessica, Social Services Director at 606-743-3846 to schedule your visit.
All visitors will be screened at the time of the visit and will be asked to self-monitor and practice all recommended precautions before and after the visit. You will be required to utilize hand sanitizer prior to the visit, wear a mask and sign a visitor attestation form.
Please do not visit if you or anyone that you have been in contact with has been ill or has been diagnosed with COVID 19. Please also report if you or anyone that you have been in contact with becomes ill or diagnosed with COVID 19 soon after a visit.
Visits can be declined or ceased at any time. This can occur if visitors do not follow the guidelines or if there is an onset of symptoms or new COVID 19 cases within the center, with residents or care team members.
Notifications of any changes will be posted to our Facebook page and website. Notification of changes will also be mailed to residents and/or responsible parties. You can also call the center at any time to see if there are any updates or changes to the visitation policy. We will also be updating our website at www.westlibertrynr.com.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Sincerely,
Kim Royse | Executive Director
