BirdDancer, I agree with Christina. Nursing homes, assisted living, skilled nursing facilities, etc. are not safe right now. Some places are prohibiting all visitors, but not all of them are. But even if your father's place is prohibiting visitors, all it would take is one nurse to get sick with coronavirus, and then next thing you know, s/he spreads it to everyone there.

Once someone gets sick in one of those places, it spreads like wildfire. Then there are lots of tragedies because the people living in those places tend to be 60 and up, which is one of the age groups that is considered a "high risk" for complications like pneumonia, bronchitis, etc..

I personally would take him out of the facility and bring him home, for his own health safety. I don't think the risk of leaving him there is worth it. I know it will suck if he is not in there anymore, but his personal health is most important. I don't want to see him get sick and suffer.
