LIBERTY, Mo. â Visitation stations are allowing residents of long-term care facilities in Missouri to visit in-person with loved ones for the first time since the pandemic began.
It started as an idea by Jen Ryan Galantowicz, vice president of branding and strategic engagement for Reach LTC, which owns 17 long-term care facilities across Missouri.
Galantowicz said the company was trying to come up with ways for residents to get to visit with loved ones. She drew a sketch of what she envisioned a visitation station to look like, using wood and Plexiglass.
