COVID-19 spreads mainly from person to person through respiratory droplets. Respiratory droplets travel into the air when you cough, sneeze, talk, shout, or sing. These droplets can then land in the mouths or noses of people who are near you or they may breathe these droplets in.

Masks are a simple barrier to help prevent your respiratory droplets from reaching others. Studies show that masks reduce the spray of droplets when worn over the nose and mouth.

Your mask should:

✔️ Reach above the nose, below the chin, and completely cover the mouth and nostrils
✔️ Fit snugly against the sides of the face
✔️ Be made of multiple layers of fabric that you can still breathe through
✔️ Be able to be laundered and machine dried without damaging the material or shape


Do not buy surgical masks to use as a mask. Those are intended for healthcare workers and first responders.

If these tips don’t help or you have concerns about wearing a mask, talk with your doctor about how to protect yourself and others during the pandemic.

“I have greatly enjoyed my stay at Seneca Place, all of the staff are so kind and accommodating.  The therapy department has been so patient in working with me in order to get me stronger that I may return home. I would recommend Seneca Place to anyone who needs therapy!”

Great job, Mr. Osborne!

“Upon admission to Seneca Place, I was unable to put weight on my left side and needed two people to help me stand. I was also unable to walk or complete activities to get ready for the day. After participating in therapy, I was able to walk over 400 feet with a walker before needing to rest and complete all of my basic needs without anyone helping me.”

Congratulations to Mrs. Triplett! We are so happy for you!

“I have had a very good experience at Seneca Place.  All of the staff have been very kind and helpful.  Before admitting to Seneca Place I was struggling with my daily activities, after working with the therapy department I am now able to get ready for the day without assistance.” 

We are so proud of Mr. Effinger on all of his Successes!
