Family Visits:
Depending upon the rate of infection in Fresno County, we can offer opportunities for family members to have in-person visits, gate visits or video visits. Please contact the community directly to plan your visit.
The following will remain in place as before:
- NON-URGENT doctor appointments must be rescheduled until the mandate has been lifted. No exceptions. If a resident goes out to an appointment or the emergency room, they will be put in quarantine for 10-14 days. Again, no exceptions.
Our community has completed its vaccination clinics through their pharmacy partners. LeadingAge has a page of COVID-19 vaccine information and resources on their website here. The Society for Post-Acute and Long Term Care Medicine has also created a Q & A document, which we have posted on our website here.
Magnolia Crossing adheres to ongoing guidance from the California Department of Social Services, the Fresno County Public Health Department, and the Center for Disease Control for infection control measures for Covid 19.
