BUFFALO, N.Y. — Kaleida Health is expanding its visitor policy for long-term care residents at Highpointe on Michigan.

Starting Friday, visitors will be allowed in by appointment only.

Visitors will need to show proof they've received a negative COVID-19 test within three days of their visit.

Additionally, people coming to the facility will need to have their temperature checked and answer a series of questions.

Visitors will need to provide information for contact tracing purposes, wear a mask, and obey social distancing.

Visits can resume at Degraff Rehabilitation and Skilled Nursing Facility once it completes a 14-day waiting period from the last positive COVID-19 test.
