their understanding and support of our team at DCC and also hope families will remain safe and healthy
in their homes.

We continue to communicate with all families via e-mail. We continue to call family members of the
eight directly impacted residents, by phone – on Monday’s, Wednesday’s, and Friday’s. If there are any
changes between these calls, families will be updated immediately.

We continue to post daily updates on the Retirement Concepts Website and Facebook Page.

We are also adhering to Dr. Bonnie Henry’s Order, to stop sharing staff between facilities.

possible during this time.
