At Calson, we take the responsibility of caring for our senior population very seriously. Throughout the pandemic, Calson has prioritized our residents' safety and well-being. We are happy to now extend the COVID-19 vaccination to our residents.

Having dementia does not increase the risk for COVID-19 but some older adults could have a higher probability of contracting COVID-19 because of increased age, dementia-related complications, and common health conditions.

Driven by our love and dedication, what it really comes down to is creativity and keeping a positive outlook. By thinking outside the box and making decisions with empathy and understanding, we can recreate the sense of normalcy that help our residents to thrive.
