Statement from Ka Punawai Ola regarding COVID-19

Updated: Thursday, March 16

Two of our associates recently tested positive for COVID-19 – one direct care staff member and one non-direct care staff member. Both associates are isolating at home until officially they officially recover and are cleared to return to work.

We do not currently have any residents with COVID-19.

We continue to follow the guidance from our local health department, as well as the CDC and CMS. To see the additional steps our facility is taking to mitigate the spread, click here: https://lcca.us/covid-19-info.

We are still open for visits. All visitors should exercise good hand hygiene, wear a mask, and socially distance from other parties. If you are feeling ill, please refrain from visiting and contact your health care provider, instead.

We will post additional updates as they are available.

Thank you!

Jena Reyes-Caday, executive director
