Virtual visits have become wildly popular at Applewood Place, where we use tablets to connect our residents with their family members near and far. These tablets are disinfected before and after each appointment. Our residents have taken such a liking to these visits, we are absolutely going to continue offering them, even when COVID-19 restrictions are relaxed!
