With the end of the State of Emergency in Delaware on Tuesday, July 13, the Department of Health and Social Services (DHSS) is affirming that Delaware’s 86 long-term care facilities (LTCs) will continue to follow the state’s existing visitation and testing guidance in order to keep residents healthy and safe during the COVID-19 pandemic. When the State of Emergency ends, long-term care facilities — including nursing homes and assisted-living facilities — will still operate under Delaware’s COVID-19 Updated Reopening Plan in Long-Term Care Facilities.
