Enhanced Living Family Updates

HVAC Project Updates

We are excited to share that the first phase of HVAC work will wrap up at the end of this week (the week of 7/13). The second phase of work will begin on Tuesday, July 21. Residents and families directly impacted by the second phase of work will receive communication from the Enhanced Living team. 

Laurel Main Entrance Update

Please be aware that as part of our project to transitioning Laurel Main into a fully secure neighborhood, visitors will no longer be able to enter or exit the Laurel Main neighborhood from the doorway nearest to the Village Center entrance. This entrance poses an elopement risk for residents who need secure support.  

Instead, all visitors must now enter and exit through the door across from Katie’s Corner Gift Shop. If you navigate left from the Village Center Guest Services desk and pass the Human Resources office, you can find the door on the left when you reach the gift shop.  

If you have trouble finding this new neighborhood entrance or need mobility assistance to the neighborhood, please let our Guest Services desk know and something will be happy to assist.

Who should I contact with questions?

For Infection Prevention questions

Gina Johnson, Infection Preventionist: gjohnson@messiahlifeways.org or 717.591.7200 ext. 6808.

For specific questions concerning your loved one (Social Workers)

AccuShield Kiosk Sign-In:

We have received numerous questions regarding why visitors must enter Nursing and EL neighborhoods through the main entrance door in Village Center. This visitor policy is in place to ensure safety, as we’re able to keep track of visitors in the building, as all visitors are expected to sign in and wear a name tag. This is not a COVID-19 requirement, but a requirement that will remain in place regardless of outbreak status. Additionally, any neighborhood in Nursing or EL that is in a respiratory outbreak will continue to be posted on a sign at the main entrance to Village Center as well as the Blog, and MVTV so that you can plan your visit accordingly.

**Do Not Visit if you are having any of the following symptoms: fever or chills, cough, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, fatigue, muscle or body aches, headache, new loss of taste or smell, sore throat, congestion or runny nose, nausea or vomiting, and/or diarrhea. We appreciate your continued efforts to help protect our community. If you have respiratory virus questions, please reach out to our Infection Preventionist, Gina Johnson, at 717-591-7200 ext. 6808.
