Across the country, nursing homes are seeing deadly outbreaks almost every day.
Dr. Jennifer Ashton, ABC News’ Chief Medical Correspondent, speaks on the CDC’s new mandate, the medication Hydroxychloroquine and how COVID-19 affects the heart.
General overall view of Cedar Mountain Post Acute senior living center, April 1, 2020, in Yucaipa, Calif.The combination of the well-intentioned measures and lack of information has been hard on some families, who told ABC News the limited interactions with their loved ones have added to their emotional strain and in some cases left them in the dark and unable to check on their relatives' well-being.
For Caroline Langdon, whose 85-year-old mother has advanced Alzheimer's disease and is a resident in the memory care unit at St. James Place in Louisiana, the hardest part is not being able to continue her routine of seeing her mom every week. “My mom is heartbroken and she doesn’t understand why,” West said. “She can’t understand what’s happening.”
Dr. Mark Gloth, the medical director for one of the nation’s largest senior living chains, HRC Manorcare, said the facilities understand the stress the outbreak has placed on those family members who have relatives in nursing care. He told ABC News he wants relatives to know that “throughout our system, people taking care of your loved ones are deeply invested in taking the best care possible.”
