Aviva COVID-19 Resources

Like all senior living communities, Aviva has prioritized resident safety during the COVID-19 pandemic. Throughout the crisis, we have closely monitored the situation, advocated for public funding of testing, and kept our residents and their families informed every step of the way. We are proud to say that 99% of our residents have received both COVID-19 vaccines. You can learn more at the links below.

We will continue to make any decisions necessary to safeguard the health of our residents and staff and to communicate about any changes we need to make.
