Notification: Nov. 24

This update is to inform you that Health Center at Live Oak is now welcoming families and friends into the Health Center. Scheduled appointments and time limits are no longer required for visitations. Visitors are still required to be screened upon entry, and we ask that each visitor continue to log in and out on the Visitor Log at the front desk. Visitors are advised to go directly to the resident's room or designated visitation area. Masks are still required, and social distancing is encouraged.

Savannah at The Oaks has the same visitation guidelines.

Because there is still risk of an outbreak or surge, Health Center at Live Oak and Savannah at The Oaks will continue to avoid "large gatherings (e.g. parties, events) where large numbers of visitors are in the same space at the same time and physical distancing cannot be maintained."

As always, The Oaks will continue to maintain strict infection control standards and expectations. 

Notification: Nov. 15

With the federal government’s directive Friday, Nov. 12, to ease many of the remaining pandemic restrictions and allow visits at all times for all skilled nursing residents, Health Center at Live Oak is waiting for the green light from the Louisiana Department of Health to welcome families and friends back into the Health Center.

Throughout the pandemic, the Health Center has followed, as required, mandates and protocols set forth by LDH, in addition to those by Centers for Disease Control. LDH regulates skilled nursing facilities in the state and often its mandates and protocols are more strict than those established by the federal government.

We will share new Health Center visitor information as soon as we get updates from LDH.

The Oaks of Louisiana has now received the second Moderna vaccine and is experiencing the longest period without a positive COVID-19 test among staff and residents since the pandemic began. With Louisiana Department of Health visitation restrictions further relaxed on Friday, we are excited to be able to bring loved ones back into Health Center at Live Oak to visit with residents who have endured a year of isolation and uncertainty and complete disruption of their lives.

It is important to remember, though, that we have gotten to this point by following suggested protocols and infection control procedures. It is still necessary to wear a mask over the nose and mouth, practice social distancing and limiting contact. Outdoor visitations, the safest way to prevent the spread of COVID-19, are preferred and should be conducted whenever possible. Outdoor visitations, the safest way to prevent the spread of COVID-19, are preferred and should be conducted whenever possible.

During his press conference last week, Gov. John Bel Edwards announced a pilot program will soon be launched to allow managed visitation in a small number of skilled nursing facilities. The facilities eligible for the pilot program will be in parishes that have a positivity rate of 5 percent or lower AND the facility has not had a case of COVID-19 for the previous 14 days. More details will be forthcoming from the Louisiana Department of Health.  LDH will contact facilities eligible for the program. At this time, Region 7, which includes Caddo Parish, is not eligible. 

When the Louisiana Department of Health announces changes to the visitation restrictions to skilled nursing facilities and provides new visitor regulations, we will announce new changes through our website and on social media.

Updated – September 10

As Gov. John Bel Edwards and his medical team continue working out details of the new proclamation advancing the state to a Phase 3 reopening beginning Friday, we are cautiously optimistic about what that means for visits to Health Center at Live Oak and Savannah at The Oaks. It has been a challenging time not only for residents and their families but Oaks staff who have provided great care and shown great compassion to residents who have missed their families and their visits terribly these past six months. It was a such a boost to their spirits when window visits were allowed with Phase 2. While Phase 3 states that “visits to senior care facilities and hospitals can resume,” the Louisiana Department of Health has not yet released any information about resuming visits. Therefore, visitor restrictions mandated by the Centers for Disease Control and the Louisiana Department of Health will remain in place until notice is received that restrictions are relaxed or lifted. What we do know at this time is that when visitations resume, they will be limited and expand gradually based on LDH guidelines. Please know we will resume visitations as soon as possible following whatever mandates issued by the LDH. We ask for your continued support and patience. We will update on our website, oaksofla.com, and our Facebook page.

It’s hard to imagine we are more than seven months into combating COVID-19. Staff at Tower at The Oaks, Garden Apartments at The Oaks, Savannah at The Oaks and Health Center at Live Oak has spent an incredible amount of time and effort working to ensure The Oaks is as safe as possible and any virus outbreak be contained and risk of spread be minimized. After all, the health and well-being of our residents is paramount. Since our last update, we have had one resident at Health Center test positive and that resident is not on campus at this time. Our priority is to do all we can to reduce the risk of COVID-19 entering our community… 24/7, 365 days a year.
