How Residents and Team Members Can Help
- Newcastle residents, team members, and visitors must wear properly fitting masks regardless of vaccination status at this time.
- Masks must cover your mouth and nose entirely. Surgical masks are preferred, as they protect better against the virus than cloth masks do.
- Residents and team members are always encouraged to monitor for signs and symptoms.
- Wash your hands often or use alcohol-based hand sanitizer.
- Currently unvaccinated/vaccinated team member working in the Highland Health Center and Health Center Residents are tested 2x per week.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Newcastle Place Highlands management team.
Thank you.
