Tuesday, Governor Laura Kelly announced expanded visitation for nursing homes and long-term care facilities, which would allow outdoor and more indoor options for families to see their loved ones. “I feel very blessed that I can be here,” said Larksfield Place resident Mary D. Lounsbury. Lounsbury said in the past year she has felt lucky to be where she is and taken care of.  “Sometimes older people don’t like to think going to a place like this. I’d go to it again at the drop of a hat. It’s just, they’re all just nice,” said Lounsbury.  But when the shutdown happened, communication with family got more complicated as many nursing homes and long-term care facilities closed their doors.
