Napa County will begin disclosing the names of long-term congregate care facilities experiencing coronavirus outbreaks, County Public Health Officer Karen Relucio confirmed, following lobbying from county elder advocates to do so.
Until now, the countyâs policy has been to disclose only the number of active coronavirus outbreaks among its 50 or so long-term care facilities â a group that includes both skilled nursing and assisted living facilities as well as smaller board-and-care homes.
Napa County previously has not released the names of facilities experiencing outbreaks nor cited the number of cases in each outbreak, according to county spokesperson Janet Upton, who noted the county leaves it up to individual nursing homes whether to publicly identify themselves as having an outbreak.
