Acknowledgment of Disclosures and Authorization

It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.

Your loved one may not require home care or assisted living services at this time. However, continue to monitor their condition for changes and consider occasional in-home care services for help as needed.
Remember, this assessment is not a substitute for professional advice.
Share a few details and we will match you to trusted home care in your area:
You may need it, yes. For any number of reasons. First of all, leaving your facility at this point exposes you to others on "the outside" who may or may not harbor the Covid-19 virus. Many facilities are still keeping residents in protective isolation. Also, there are many people whose physicians have suggested that leaving the facility unaccompanied are no longer safe for any number of reasons, anything ranging from hearing and eyesight to a tendency for confusion in confusing circumstances. So for yourself, the best thing is to speak to the admins at your own nursing facility about your wish to go to the park, if it is allowed, and how to proceed. Wishing you good luck.
We are still in COVID lock downs. One local NH opened up last week, by appointment, only to have to go back to outside visits because a staff member came up positive for COVID.
If you mean can they keep you from going to a park, the answer is yes. I guess if you went, they also have a right to quarentine you you for 14 days when you come back. They are trying to protect you, the other residents and their staff.
In a normal world you should be able to come and go, just signing in and out so they know where you are. But COVID is not gone. It keeps popping up its ugly head. Until we have no new cases, things are going to stay as they are. The vaccine may or may not solve the problem.
Are you the resident? Or are you wanting to take a loved one out? If you are the resident and are able to leave most places will just have you sign out and when you return sign back in so they know where everyone is. That is if you are medically able to leave without someone with you. If you are taking someone out , if you are able to take this person out you sign them out and when you return you sign them back in. Any overnight needs to be cleared. And if it is overnight you need to make sure you have all the items you you need. (change of clothes, medications....) And if you are the resident you need to make sure you can safely leave the grounds and return safely. Do you plan on walking? get a ride? You can easily discuss this and the specific requirements with the facility manager. Also keep in mind that with COVID you may be required to quarantine if you leave the property.
Why don't you ask the facility administrators? You don't provide enough information for anyone to give you an answer, plus I'm sure each facility has their own specific rules.
