In addition to continuously monitoring and abiding by the recommendations put forth by the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC) and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), we will continue to inform visitors of the local COVID-19 transmission rate in the surrounding community. Current infection rate for Cumberland County: 18.8%.
Screening & Masking
- Masks are required in community indoor common areas for all guests at Bethany Village. This applies to all guests, even those who are vaccinated. Associates will continue to be required to wear masks.
- All Bethany Village associates (vaccinated or not) will continue to screen and wear masks at all times while working across all levels of care on campus. We will continue to review this requirement regularly and will incorporate the CDC and local and state departments of health guidance for healthcare workers.
- Only family members or visitors going to visit a resident in Assisted Living or Skilled Nursing will need to complete the screening process.

Residential Living
Due to the updated CDC county-level transmission guidelines, we have made the decision to lift the mask requirement for Residential Living residents (and Residential Living visitors) in the Residential Living areas. Please note that this mask change is for Residential Living only at this time.
All Bethany Village associates will continue to be required to wear a mask. This includes associates who work in Residential Living.
Residents may have guests at their home with no time limit. Please ensure that you can maintain 6 feet of physical distancing in your home. Prior to inviting any visitors, please check the PA COVID-19 Travelers Info page here, health.pa.gov/topics/disease/coronavirus/Pages/Travelers.aspx, to ensure any visitors you plan to host have followed the state guidance on travelers (you can also view travel-related FAQs on the webpage).
Residents no longer need to screen in and out when leaving campus. Fully vaccinated Residential Living Residents will not have to screen-in when using the internal dining areas, beauty salon, fitness center and pool. However, unvaccinated residents need to be screened to utilize these on-campus venues.
We are also asking that residents who are planning on taking an overnight or extended trip check in with administration to ensure that the proper protocols are taken during that trip. We will still have the self -quarantine process in place for those times that residents are at risk. If a resident has a question about their trip or this process, please call John Bowen 717-591-8081.
Residents who are not fully vaccinated must self-quarantine for a full 7 days after return from travel – or 11 day if they do not complete the following testing protocol. They may discontinue self-quarantine if they are asymptomatic and have obtained a PCR COVID-19 test 5 or more days after return.
Resident recovered from COVID-19 in the last 90 days: testing and quarantine is not recommended.
