MALONE — Visitation at the Alice Center’s Skilled Nursing Facility has resumed, following updated guidelines from the state’s Department of Health.
According to a press release from Phillip Rau, a spokesperson for the Malone hospital, visitation at the Skilled Nursing Facility had previously been suspended on March 18 after an employee at the facility tested positive for COVID-19.
The resumption of visits at the Skilled Nursing Facility in February followed a months-long suspension of visitation, due to positive tests for the virus in November 2020.
