My husband moved to a memory care facility on 12-14-21. I was visiting him daily until 12-29-21 when I was notified that there would be not more visits until further notice due to COVID cases among the residents. It was implied that this was likely due to residents leaving the facility for family Christmas gatherings. However, I noted when visiting that masks were not worn uniformly by staff which was contrary to what I was told prior to moving him into the facility. So it's entirely likely that the residents were infected by staff. Now I'm wondering if I should try to bring him home until this outbreak is under control. I won't know anything further it seems until 1-3-22 at the earliest when all residents will be retested.
I would greatly appreciate any insight or guidance into this .
