Our Safety Protocols

Since February 2020, Civitas Senior Living has been monitoring the COVID-19 pandemic and has implemented standards and protocols to protect the safety of our residents. We understand that we protect the most vulnerable populations that are affected by this virus, and we immediately put in place safety protocols and necessary steps in all of our communities.
