Distinctive Living COVID Guidelines & Updates

Please direct your questions to [email protected] or call 888.509.1021.

Dear Residents, Families, and Visitors:

The situation regarding COVID-19 is changing rapidly, and Distinctive Living is closely monitoring it.

We’re also taking proactive steps to reduce the risk of COVID-19 in each of our communities. This web page is intended to share the latest information on our action steps and updates as they become available. 

On August 23, 2021, the US Food and Drug Administration gave full approval to the first novel coronavirus vaccine: the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine. It has been fully approved for the prevention of COVID-19 disease in individuals 16 years of age and older. It will continue to be available under emergency use authorization (EUA) for individuals 12 through 15 years of age and for the administration of a third dose in certain immunocompromised individuals.

FDA COVID Update

Active FDA Commissioner Janet Woodcock, MD, said, “The public can be very confident that this first FDA-approved COVID-19 vaccine meets the high standards for safety, effectiveness, and manufacturing quality the FDA requires of an approved product.”

She also said, “While millions of people have already safely received COVID-19 vaccines, we recognize that for some, the FDA approval of a vaccine may now instill additional confidence to get vaccinated.”

Our Distinctive Living COVID-19 response continues to evolve and follow the lead of leading American medical entities. That’s why:

  • We continue to encourage you and your residents to receive your vaccinations, wear masks, wash your hands, and maintain your social distancing.
  • If full FDA vaccine approval is what you were waiting for and you’re now ready, please make an appointment by visiting the CVS website or the Walgreens website to schedule yours as soon as it’s convenient—and your booster shot too.

Thank you again to everyone who has made the decision to vaccinate and to help us all get one step closer to herd immunity. We appreciate what you’re doing.

Distinctive Living COVID Guidelines

Below are the measures that we have put in place to care for our residents in a safe and healthy environment.

  • All community team members are currently required to wear masks during their shift and to wear gloves while providing direct care to residents. 
  • If there are respiratory symptoms of unknown cause or a suspected or confirmed case of COVID-19, team members are required to wear an N95 mask, face shield, gown, and gloves. 
  • We have also returned to testing of team members every other week until further notice.
  • All residents are required to wear masks when they are not inside of their apartment.
  • Residents are being screened daily for the symptoms of COVID-19 as listed by the CDC. 
  • Residents leaving the community will be screened upon their return.
  • All visitors are required to wear masks and be screened for symptoms of COVID-19, and have their temperature checked upon arrival at the community. All visitors must comply with visitation policies and procedures.
  • We are also making sure that our environment remains clean by disinfecting all high-touch surfaces multiple times a day with EPA-approved products used to fight against SARS-CoV 2, the novel coronavirus that causes the disease COVID-19.

Please feel free to contact our community at any time with questions or concerns. We want to do anything we can to help you feel more at ease during this time.

And as promised, we will provide notification, within 24 hours, to our residents, the healthcare power of attorney, and our team members should we have anyone in our community test positive for COVID-19. 

We will provide this communication by both a phone call and an email. If you are the healthcare power of attorney, please make sure you notify any other family members that you want to make aware. We greatly appreciate your help with this.We thank you for your cooperation and for allowing us to serve your family. We will continue to update our Distinctive Living COVID-19 Response.
