On Tuesday, July 28th the Residents of Juniper Village at Forest Hills were invited to enjoy a delicious lunch in the Four Season's Dining Room. Not something that would normally be talked about; however, this meal was the first meal that the residents have enjoyed outside of their

apartments since March.

Due to the recent COVID pandemic and as a precautionary measure, senior living community residents have not been permitted to gather or dine in a dining room and were required to dine
in their apartments. However, with Allegheny County recently moving
into the green zone, and with the decreasing number of county wide COVID
cases, Personal Care Homes were given permission by the state to
reintroduce small group dining.
