COVID-19 UPDATE: The Culpeper Restricts Visitors
The Culpeper’s team has, and is, responding to the emerging health situation, Coronavirus (COVID-19), by continuing to implement additional practices to ensure the health and safety of the residents. The Culpeper does not have COVID-19 yet, but we are acting with an abundance of precaution for the protection of our residents, their families and team members.
As this situation evolves, our preventative measures will change to meet our objectives of proactive prevention and containment. Accordingly, as of today, we are implementing a plan to enhance the protective measures which are already in place. Effective March 13, visitation is restricted for all levels of care at The Culpeper. Visitors and guests will not be permitted except in certain situations, such as end-of-life for a resident or when a visitor is deemed essential for a resident’s wellbeing and care. 
In lieu of visits, we encourage alternative means of communication such as phone, video, email, social media or other means. Please contact Jim Jacobsen at 540-321-1301 if you need assistance arranging alternative means of communication with your loved one. Questions may be submitted via email at [email protected].
