Waveny LifeCare Network COVID-19 Daily Update
for Residents, Patients, and Families

Taking strong clinical countermeasures against COVID-19 has enhanced our Patients’ and Residents’ care and recovery, and minimize future COVID-19 risk in our community. To that end, the individualized Care Plans implemented by Waveny LifeCare Network’s direct-care professionals are a critical function that have allowed us to:

1. Improve Patient and Resident well-being and potential for recovery; and,
2. Increase the number of Patient conversions from positive to negative COVID-19 test results.
