Long-Term Care Facilities

Regional long-term care facilities continue to be impacted by the COVID-19 public health crisis. The MARC Long-Term Care-EP membership group meets weekly to discuss the needs, gaps and opportunities for long-term care facilities. If you would like to be a part of this group, please contact Sara Shirk at sshirk@marc.org.

The Wyandotte and Johnson County Regional Task Force for COVID-19 in Long Term Care was developed to provide support and guidance for nursing facilities related to COVID-19. It is composed of representatives from Wyandotte County Department of Health, Johnson County Department of Health, area hospitals, nursing home administrators and the Kansas Department of Health and Environment.

A regional toolkit has been developed for leaders and staff at long-term care facilities. The toolkit includes guidance, symptom logs, compliance information and other resources for facility leadership and staff.
