Coronavirus update

The recent spread of the coronavirus around the world, including the recent cases in the Seattle-area, is of significant public concern. We have been closely monitoring the situation and the guidance issued by the CDC and Washington Department of Health.  The safety and health of our residents and staff is our top priority, and of particular concern is the vulnerability of our resident population. Please visit our special resource section for the most recent information regarding our preparations to keep our residents safe. We will be posting updates as we continue to monitor the situation and add additional practices to help further reduce the risk of contagion, identify individuals who may have been exposed to the disease, and minimize risk of contagion among residents, staff, family members, and other visitors.
