Today we want to celebrate the re-opening of our dining room! We dined, we enjoyed a live performance, and most importantly we got to see a familiar face, a friend, a neighbor, a fellow resident. Following covid-19 protocols and staying safe has always been the top priority at Kingsley Manor and getting approved for indoor dining was a beautiful and heartfelt moment for our residents and staff alike. ... Thank you for the residents for being so resilient and patient, and thank you to all the staff who prioritized and work extra hard to get Kingsley Manor slowly back to normal, one step at a time. #food #music #kingsleymanor #covidsaftey #socialdistance
