Updated: Thursday, May 6, 11:30 a.m. MDT

At Life Care Center of Aurora, the safety of our residents and peace of mind for family members are our highest priorities.

Our testing on Monday, April 26 was all negative, and indoor visitation resumed on Monday, May 3.

We continue to follow the guidance provided by the Colorado Department of Health, the Agency for Health Care Administration and the local health department.

Our primary concern is for the health and safety of our residents, nursing staff and other care providers. Our residents are monitored multiple times day and night for any symptoms or concerns. And every associate is screened when they arrive for work and when they leave, including checking temperature and monitoring for any symptoms or concerns.

Thank you to all who have supported our residents and associates in the fight against the coronavirus.

Malory Ruprecht, executive director
