The Cove at Tavares Village is proud of our veteran staff in our Nursing Department. Many of our associates have been with us for 10-20+ years and go above and beyond every day.
To keep our nursing staff fresh, we have mandatory continuing education courses throughout the year to keep us all up to date on the latest in nursing care.

When it comes to caring for our extended family (our residents), we follow CDC, DOH, and AHCA guidelines. Our staff is constantly updated on the current regulations with daily audits to make sure we are all doing the best we can. Following these guidelines are the top priority next to caring for our residents. Our nursing department works tirelessly to make sure our residents are happy and healthy.

We are pleased to announce we are in full swing regarding COVID-19 vaccinations, which began in January 2021. What a fantastic service offered by Walgreens. Our senior living facility is stocked with a plentiful bounty of PPE (personal protective equipment) to ensure our residents and staff are safe. Twice daily temperature checks and symptom monitoring throughout the day for everyone make it easy to quickly identify any changes that may occur regarding residents and staff’s health and safety.

Our facility has spared no expense when it comes to the safety of our staff and residents. We have the latest equipment to sanitize both the air we breathe (UV-C Disinfection in our Air Conditioning) and the surfaces we come in contact with, such as our new hospital-grade disinfection device kills which kills 99.99% of pathogens, including the human coronavirus.
So when you choose to come to The Cove, know that you are entering one of the safest, state-of-the-art equipped environments for your family member.

We would to extend a huge THANK YOU to the nursing department and every department, staff member, resident, and family member. Without all of us working together, we would be just an average place to live or work. We are far from that……We are THE COVE AT TAVARES VILLAGE……This is where you want to be……

In the wake of the COVID-19 Pandemic, Assisted Living / Memory Care facilities across the country have been hard at work implementing innovative new ways to help keep their residents safer from infectious diseases. As part of bolstering their cleaning procedures and upgrading their facility to promote safety, The Cove at Tavares Village in Tavares, FL, has purchased a new Hospital Grade UV disinfection system from R-Zero.

UV-C is a special wavelength of ultraviolet light that destroys or inactivates bacteria, viruses, fungi, and mold without harsh chemicals. UV-C disinfection has been used in waste processing facilities and air conditioner units for decades and has become the gold standard to disinfect hospitals in recent years. R-Zero is a biosafety company working to make the same UV-C disinfection technology used by hospitals, accessible to smaller healthcare units such as Skilled Nursing Facilities. The R-Zero Arc is a mobile hospital-grade UV unit that can be easily moved around the facility to kill airborne and surface pathogens. Arc is proven to destroy 99.99% of pathogens (including those that cause Human Coronavirus) in just 7 minutes.

The Cove at Tavares Village is proud to begin implementing this new advanced infection prevention measure in 2021 as part of many innovations to promote their long-term care residents’ health and safety.
