An assisted care facility in Oakland is dealing with more residents who have tested positive for COVID-19, and a total of four deaths. The first death at the Oakland Manor was reported in late July, along with 18 residents who had contracted COVID-19. KETV in Omaha says since then Pottawattamie County officials have confirmed 10 additional residents have required treatment for the virus, and three more have died. The County says the latest victim was a man aged 61-80, who died Sunday.

Pott. County Planning Director Matt Wyant says that at last check, seven residents have spent the required 10 days in isolation and are considered ‘recovering,’ but added they could still show symptoms for some time. Knowing the residents require round-the-clock care, Wyant says the county has offered support for laundry services, hotel rooms and additional nursing staff.

In providing that relief, Wyant said the county hopes Oakland Manor staff will continue self-monitoring and strongly recommends the same employees care for either healthy or recovering residents.
