Aberdeen Heights residents test positive for COVID-19 4/8/22

KIRKWOOD, Mo. – Two independent living residents at Aberdeen Heights tested positive for COVID-19 this week.

The residents are in isolation and are being cared for by designated team members following PMMA’s Emergent Infectious Disease (EID) Policy, CDC and Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services (DHSS) best practices for infection control and prevention and physician’s orders.

The St. Louis County Health Department was notified, and we will follow any additional guidance provided.

PMMA strongly encourages our families, employees and residents to carefully consider getting a COVID-19 vaccination for themselves, as well as their loved ones. Every person who receives the vaccine will strengthen the protection for all residents, staff and the community at-large.

All employees are encouraged to follow CDC guidelines and best practices as these are continually updated. The community regularly reinforces with all staff that an employee should not report to work if he or she is experiencing symptoms of a respiratory illness or not feeling well.
