Becky Bradley, Chief Nursing Officer at Harborview Health System (HHS) – Pierce, spoke to the Blackshear Rotary Club last week. HHS offers both long term, skilled nursing care and short term rehabilitation. Many of their staff are tenured providers who have been part of the HHS family for decades. HHS was originally built as a hospital in 1952. It was converted fully to a nursing home in the 1990s. The facility is licensed for 78 beds. The current census is 69. They employ 157 staff members. While still required to follow COVID protocols, life has started to look more normal at HHS over the last year. They are able to take residents on outings and host activities and social events at the facility. Jessica Russell, Infection Prevention Specialists, also attended the meeting to answer questions.
