In a news release sent Friday afternoon, the facility made the announcement.
According to the release, the facility has gone 14 days with no new resident or staff positives. All staff and residents were tested Thursday and again Friday to confirm everyone in the building is negative.
“The past 27 days have been very difficult for all of us … we’ve lost four residents, one employee, and have seen tragic family losses with other employees,” CEO Timothy Reeves said in the release.
The facility, located in South Renovo, struggled in recent weeks. Eventually, the National Guard was brought in to assist the staff.

Keith Tripp of the Citizenâs Hose Company Station #28 of South Renovo hands Linda Logue two spaghetti dinners as the company passed out 231 total Monday evening for free. The free dinners were made possible with a donation from friends of the fire company, Phil and Selma (Larson) Regan of Chicago, who paid for all of the food.
The Citizen’s Hose Company of South Renovo and their monthly spaghetti dinners not only serves as the most consistent fundraiser for the all-volunteer fire station but also is a favorite of many in the area.
