The Department of Health has selected Atlantic Health System to serve as a monitor at Woodland Behavioral and Nursing Center in Andover. Atlantic Health will convene a multi-disciplinary team to conduct an onsite assessment of business practices, operations, and infrastructure, and will remain onsite for up to 90 days. Weekly reports will be provided to the Department throughout the monitoring period.
Newton Medical Center, which is part of Atlantic Health System’s western region, is located less than 5 miles from Woodland, and has long provided inpatient and ambulatory care for the residents of the facility. During the pandemic, Atlantic Health System provided PPE and fit testing for staff and has partnered with the Department to conduct COVID testing for Woodland staff and residents multiple times.
