Community Update:
Our team remains committed to communication throughout this time. We are continuing to make adjustments to our care delivery system based on information from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), Hamilton Medical Center’s COVID 19 Task Force, and North Georgia Health District.
Working with the Georgia Department of Public Health we have completed baseline testing of all our residents and associates. We are providing free testing to all residents, associates, and sitters on a weekly basis until we have had 14 days of no new cases. We have also increased our sanitation efforts and began using full contact precautions when giving resident care to our most vulnerable population in an effort to slow the spread of the virus.
Royal Oaks has 1 associate that is positive for COVID-19. We are currently only reporting the employees of our community. For those of you with sitters or individuals hired to assist in the care of your loved one outside of the Hamilton system, we ask that you please insist on testing, proper hand sanitization, and the wearing of personal protective equipment of these individuals. In an effort to protect our residents and team members, It is imperative that anyone who has tested positive not come to work at our community until they have been cleared by their physician and have received “okay to return to work” paperwork.
We will also continue to provide updates on a weekly basis or as new information becomes available through this website.

Currently; Royal Oaks and The Gardens at Royal Oaks have 0 residents and 3 associates have tested positive for COVID-19. One associate has recovered and has been cleared by Hamilton’s Associate Health team and two are still recovering in quarantine.
The Royal Oaks and Gardens at Royal Oaks team have taken many preventative measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and keep our residents and associates safe including restricting access of visitors into the Gardens and discouraging visitors at Royal Oaks. We are grateful to Hamilton Medical Center for allowing us the usage of their Xenex machine to sanitize the work areas of the positive associates as well as other high traffic areas in the community. Over the last week, we have worked with the North Georgia Health District, the Department of Public Health and Hamilton Medical Center to offer testing to all residents and associates. We are happy to announce that all Gardens residents tested negative.
Our team continues to consistently screen associates for symptoms, restrict visitation and practice resident social distancing by no communal dining and/or group activities. The asymptomatic (without symptoms) spread of this virus remains very challenging for everyone. We are continuing to make adjustments to our care delivery system based on information from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), Hamilton’s COVID-19 Task Force, and working with local health departments. We will also continue to provide updates on a weekly basis or as new information becomes available through calls, email, or this website.
