Keeping nursing home communities safe and healthy is something we all play a part in.

A.G. Rhodes was pleased to participate in a new video from the CDC highlighting simple, everyday actions that elders and care partners can take to help prevent the spread of infections in nursing home communities.

We were glad to welcome the CDC to A.G. Rhodes and have our elders and care partners take part in this project. Sharing practical information about infection prevention is especially important in nursing homes, where protecting the health of older adults is a priority every day.

Watch “Preventing Infections in Your Nursing Home Community” and see if you can spot a few A.G. Rhodes spaces and faces!
