The Oakleaf
Oakview Medical Care Facility April 2021
Greetings once again! We know you are all frustrated and we
share in that sentiment! We feel like we are moving in the right
direction and then get setbacks. Because of the positive
employee identified on March 24th that puts Oakview in
“outbreak” status and we remain closed to regular visitation
until we are clear from a positive for 14 days. Staff and residents
will continue to be tested 2x per week until we are clear from the
outbreak and then after that we just test staff 1x per week. We
are still allowed to have compassionate care, end of life visitation
and window visits. We are still strongly encouraging visitors to
be tested prior to coming into Oakview. Visitors are required to
keep masks on at all times when entering the building. Visitors
must remain 6 feet away from others but can have limited
physical contact with the resident they are visiting, if the resident
has been vaccinated and the resident has agreed to the
contact. The state is updating the guidance, almost on a daily
basis, so please stay tuned for updates.
Please call Mary Jo ext. 261 or Mandy ext. 259 to schedule a visit
or if you have questions. We don’t mind the questions and
know this is all hard to navigate. Thank you again for sticking in
there with us and we look forward to see you all soon!
Jannice Lamm, Oakview Administrator
Oakview Medical Care Facility 1001 Diana St. Ludington, MI 49431 231-845-5185 ww.oakviewmcf.com
Dietary note of Interest: We will be doing the next cart rotation for the 2nd Quar-
ter (April– June) starting on 4/1/21. This cart rotation is set up to change quarterly so all
residents will have the opportunity to be served 1st at various meals throughout the
year. This will change for all lunch and supper times as to when your hall cart will go
out. For instance if East Hall was 1st after the dining rooms they will be moved to 2nd
after the dining rooms for this quarter and if a cart was last they will move to first for this
quarter and so on. Also, remember that the resident dining room gets served 1st for all
meals. Hope this reminder helps!
