Keeping Our
Communities Safe

Stay Connected. Stay Informed.

Our top priority is the health and safety of our residents, team members and guests who visit our communities. We are currently following guidelines set by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), CMS, AHCA, HHSC and state requirements to ensure you and your loved ones are safe. 

We continue to welcome new residents to our communities for short-term (skilled nursing) care, long-term care and respite care for when the original caregiver has to step away for a short time. Please make an appointment for a tour of the right community for your loved one’s care.

Touchstone Communities

100%

At our Touchstone Communities your loved one is family, and we are 100% committed to keeping them safe.

Visiting Loved Ones

At Touchstone, we know the importance of receiving a visit from your loved ones. A visit from family is the highlight of many residents’ day and is an integral part of their well-being. So that you can continue visiting your loved one, we adjusted our visitation policies following medical, federal and local guidelines.

Visitation appointments are limited per day; please contact the Touchstone community you are planning to visit to schedule your appointment and ensure you have a safe place to spend time with your loved one. Visitation policies can change frequently and depend on the community’s health and safety status, which can be found in the chart at the bottom of this page.

Dining & Amenities

Based on current health guidelines, we have reopened our dining rooms, with limited capacity, in an effort to reintroduce the feeling of “community” for our residents. Residents also have the option to dine in the privacy of their own rooms. Special amenities such as Internet cafes and movie theaters (available at specific locations) are also open with safety precautions.

Residents who are able to wear masks are encouraged to do so in shared spaces, and everyone at a Touchstone community socially distance themselves at six feet apart from others. We ask that residents who feel sick avoid joining others and report it to team members.

Socializing Safety

Socialization is an integral part of our communities. We create an environment that feels comfortable and engaging to our residents. While your family is in our care, we will do everything we can to make every day an uplifting one.

Group activities and shared spaces, such as chapels, are kept safe for residents to engage in. Residents may also participate in larger group activities and gatherings, within the communities and in some cases outside of the communities, so long as social distancing guidelines are followed. We also encourage residents to socially distance and wear masks, shields or other face coverings per CDC guidelines.

Therapy & Rehabilitation

At Touchstone, getting your loved one back to health is very important to us. As we continue offering our rehabilitation programs, we have adapted them to follow state and local guidelines to do so safely. Be confident that while our team members provide care to your loved ones, we are doing everything in our power to keep them safe and meeting their physical, social, emotional, and spiritual needs. All communities will continue to offer:

  • Physical therapy

  • Speech therapy
  • Memory care
  • And more

Mask Requirements

To continue ensuring the well-being of you and our residents, we require face coverings or masks for team members and visitors at all Touchstone Communities. We provide our team members with masks during their shifts and any other Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) as needed. Residents who are able to wear face masks or coverings are encouraged to do so while they’re in public areas.

We will continue monitoring CDC, state and local guidelines and will make adjustments to our policies accordingly.

What We’re Doing To Keep You Safe

Regular Screening

All team members, residents and visitors are screened with a questionnaire and temperature check for contractible illnesses upon entry to all Touchstone Communities facilities.

Keeping Our Communities Clean

Touchstone Communities continues to thoroughly clean and disinfect every facility with care. We follow health and sanitization protocols, and our team members have been trained on the most effective disinfecting methods and products to keep you and your loved ones safe. All public and team-member areas are disinfected regularly.

COVID-19 Status Updates

Below you will find COVID-19 updates for each Touchstone Community.  The data reflects patients tested as of 06/02/2023 and is pending validation by public health officials. A positive test does not necessarily mean the patient is experiencing symptoms. This data, in combination with other sources, is being used to improve public health decisions. All communities are monitoring for signs and symptoms related to COVID-19 according to state and federal guidelines.
