Byron Health Center Wednesday celebrated a COVID-19 accomplishment – having no documented cases of the disease among residents for a year. The organization is one of the very few facilities in Allen County that can make this claim, said John Drebenstedt, spokesman for the facility providing long-term skilled and intermediate care to its 139 residents.
The facility maintained its record despite having many residents in higher-risk categories because of age or medical conditions and moving en masse in October to a new location at 1661 Beacon St. in Fort Wayne.
