Update:

Current visitation guidelines: https://chcclynden.org/visitation/

Sept. 1, 2026: Preventative masking: Beginning Sept. 1, you’ll see more CHCC employees and volunteers wearing masks as we take an added step to help protect residents from COVID, influenza and other respiratory viruses.

With school starting and seasonal illnesses expected to increase in the community, masks will be worn when providing resident care and in other resident areas. This is a preventive measure and does not mean there is currently an outbreak at CHCC. You can always check the Visitation page on our website for updates that may impact your time in the building.

Outbreaks are difficult on our residents and staff. We need your help to minimize the risk of a virus entering CHCC. If you are sick or have recently been exposed to an illness, please postpone your in-person visit. You are welcome to call your loved one, or ask a member of our activities team for help arranging a virtual visit by calling 360-354-4434.

Overnight or multiday outings: Please notify nursing staff at least 48 hours in advance so there is enough time to coordinate and properly package medications.

Car show Wednesday, Sept. 2: Gear Heads will bring their vehicles to CHCC at 11 a.m. for a resident-centered car show in the parking lot behind our building. Parking behind CHCC will be limited until approximately 1 p.m.

CHCC will continue to test all staff and all consenting residents per local, state and federal guidelines. ​All staff members continue to be screened before they start work, and we monitor our residents daily, watching for any signs or symptoms of the virus. Infection control best practices are followed, and appropriate personal protective equipment is worn by all.
