Coronavirus Update (COVID-19)

Vaccine Clinics rolled out across Eskaton’s Family of Services.
​Over 9,600 doses of vaccine were administered.

O’Connor Woods’ continued response to the COVID-19 Pandemic

Eskaton began scheduling COVID-19 vaccine clinics in our communities as soon as the opportunity arose. This process was accomplished through the state pharmacy program in collaboration with CVS and Walgreens pharmacies. We have also had county public health and a private health system reach out to assist our staff and residents to obtain a vaccination.

Our first clinic was held at Eskaton Care Center Fair Oaks on Dec. 30th where staff and residents received the first of two doses from Walgreens staff. Since then, all communities have now finished their first clinic and some have completed all three. This includes affordable housing, residential living and care centers. We are very excited to add this option to our toolbox of interventions designed to mitigate the spread of the COVID-19 virus. We are hopeful that the vaccines will bring us a step closer to opening our communities to family and friends once again.

For more information on the vaccine schedule where your loved one resides, please contact the community directly.

Communications
We deliver communication updates twice per month to our residents and their families. We provide weekly communication to our staff via letter, phone or email. These communications are provided below for residential living, rehabilitation and skilled nursing. Virtual tours, and on-site visits, can be scheduled directly with loved ones by contacting our community.

Importance of Partnerships
As part of our local commitment, and to strengthen provider relationships, Eskaton has partnered with healthcare systems to create specialty programs to care for, and rehabilitate, those who test positive for Covid-19. Together, we are providing essential services for those most vulnerable and caring for their specific needs. Currently, our Eskaton Care Center Fair Oaks operates a specialty neighborhood for this purpose with additional COVID care provisions that are provided in other Eskaton locations.

Our community is ready to welcome you or your loved one home! Please reach out to O’Connor Woods to schedule a tour or an on-site visit at 209-956-3400.
