“We have statutory
deadlines that we must
meet and part of our
ability to do so relies on
being able to work with
our residents,” said Lane
County Assessor Mike
Cowles. “Not every-
one has access to online
services, and not every
question or issue can be
resolved from a distance.
“We are doing every-
thing we can to provide
services in a safe way.”
There are also several
contactless options to re-
ceive service. The Assess-

Long-term care facilities
permitting outdoor visitation
Oregon’s licensed long-
term care providers may
begin providing limited
outdoor visitation for
residents if the facility
develops a plan to adhere
to required safeguards
to prevent the spread of
COVID-19.
Following the safety
prerequisites — includ-
ing health screenings,
face coverings, physical
distancing and limits on
the number of visitors —
is mandatory as Oregon
continues to experience
an increase in outbreaks
at long-term care facili-
ties.
While visits with fam-
ily and friends are essen-
tial to well-being, they
also create significant
risk, not only for the in-
dividual who is seeing a
loved one, but for every-
one who lives and works
in that care facility.
The Department of
Human Services outdoor
visitation policy applies
to all facilities licensed by
the Office of Aging and
People with Disabilities
including nursing, assist-
ed living, residential and
memory care facilities
as well as all adult foster
homes.
Facilities that are
currently coping with
COVID-19 cases, or sus-
pected cases, may not of-
fer outside visitation until
DHS determines that the
outbreak has resolved.
All current indoor visi-
tation restrictions issued
in March remain in place
regardless of the reopen-
ing plan status of the
county where the facility
is located; however, res-
idents are free to leave
and return to their facil-
ity if following all public
health guidance.
“We hope this policy
provides some relief to
residents, their family
members and friends
who we know have suf-
fered extreme hardship
as a result of visitation
restrictions
required
during the pandemic.
Balancing resident safety
with the essential need to
have contact with family
and friends is challeng-
ing as COVID-19 pres-
ents life-threatening risks
and spreads rapidly in
congregate care settings,”
said Mike McCormick,
interim director of the
DHS Office of Aging and
People with Disabilities.
