Our Safer Home Commitment.
New Normal, New Needs, New Steps for Ensured Safety
Keeping our residents and employees safe has been and continues to be our number one priority. As we work to manage the impact and ongoing concerns of the Coronavirus, Covenant Living is introducing our Safer Home Commitment at every location throughout the country – we’ve developed very specific protocols to create a Safer Home for our residents and the employees that serve them. Learn more by downloading our PDF!
Our Safer Home Commitment includes:
- Testing of Skilled Nursing and Assisted Living residents and healthcare employees for COVID-19
- Disease prevention best practices, including handwashing, appropriate physical distancing, and proper use of facial coverings or masks for employees and residents
- Increased frequency of cleanings and ensuring all disinfectants used are proven effective against COVID-19
- Designated containment rooms in skilled nursing for the care and movement of COVID-19 patients, as well as limitations for the number of staff permitted to enter (always with required PPE)
- Portable handwashing stations to encourage frequent handwashing
- Additional housekeeping staff, added to meet increased cleaning demands
- Weekly training for housekeeping staff on proper handwashing, donning of PPE, and cleaning resident rooms
- Increased frequency of laundry and trash pick-up
Please consult our downloadable PDF for the full overview of protocols and processes put in place as part of Our Safer Home Commitment.

It's Feature Friday! 🎬⛸️
Looking back at Chuck and Donna Burke's apartment at Covenant Living of Northbrook where you could find a lifetime of speed skating memorabilia. Chuck competed in the 1952 and 1956 Winter Olympics (his USA team coat still fits!), while Donna was a North American champion in her own right. 🏅
Married 65 years and both former Chicago-area coaches, the two remain tied to the sport they love, still cheering on Team USA every time the Winter Olympics roll around.
A gold-medal love story, on and off the ice. 💙

And we have Peter Kennedy at the Shores who also has his Olympic coat!
Today we pause to remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and to honor the first responders, service members, and everyday heroes who answered the call.
At Covenant Living, we reflect with gratitude and reverence, never forgetting the courage and unity shown on that day and in the years since.
We remember. We honor. 💙🤍❤️ ... See MoreSee Less
