As the data continues to slowly sift in from the Texas Health and Human Services the scale of COVID-19 impact on Kerrville area nursing homes and assisted living centers becomes more clear.Â
There were three previously unreported deaths at two nursing homes and an assisted living center due to a two-week delay in the state releasing the data. Villagio, an assisted living center, reported a death on Dec. 2, and on that same day Alpine Terrace, which is across the street on Alpine Street, reported its first death. On Dec. 3, River Hills Nursing and Rehabilitation reported a death.Â
Since the start of the pandemic there have now been 16 deaths at Kerrville nursing homes and assisted living centers.Â
