This page will be updated weekly with information about COVID-19 outbreaks in Kitsap County. Outbreaks that meet the case threshold for a facility to be identified by name will be reported as soon as information becomes available. This page is under development and will continue to be revised and expanded.

OUTBREAKS IN LONG-TERM CARE & RESIDENTIAL CARE FACILITIES

Definition: Per guidance from the state Department of Health, an outbreak at a long-term care or residential living facility is defined as one resident or health care worker with confirmed COVID-19. See the guidance document for additional criteria.

Identifying facilities: To protect the private health information of residents and employees, facilities will be identified by name if 10 or more cases associated with an outbreak are reported (see Department of Health guidance for small numbers reporting). People who are concerned about COVID-19 activity at a specific facility are encouraged to contact the facility directly.
