SAEGERTOWNÂ â The Pennsylvania Army National Guard temporarily is helping staff the Crawford County Care Center in Saegertown because of positive COVID-19 among staff.
The National Guard is providing one nurse, five medics serving as certified nursing assistants and six others to work with dietary and housekeeping services at the county-owned nursing home, Eric Henry, chairman of Crawford County Board of Commissioners, said Thursday.
The National Guard arrived Wednesday at the Care Center and will work at the home at least through Monday, Henry said.
