TRUMBULL, Connecticut — Water issues reported at the facility caused nearly 200 residents to evacuate from the Trumbull Nursing Facilities early Thursday morning, town officials said.

In a news release posted to the town website, authorities said the state's Public Health Department notified the town of St. Joseph's Center, Genesis, on Wednesday, at 6448 Main Street.

In response, town officials worked closely with the DPH to activate the “long-term care emergency plan” and evacuate around 187 patients to skilled nursing facilities throughout the state.

DPH and the State Emergency Management and Homeland Security Agency, Trumbull EMS, Emergency Management, Fire and Police, and more than two dozen EMS engines and wheelchair coloring services across the state began the evacuation and transport process around 11pm

By 7:45am, approximately 66 patients had been safely consumed in 23 different, skilled nursing facilities via ambulances, wheelchair vans or colouring services. By 8:30am, about 50 additional patients had been transported to other facilities, officials said.

All residents were safely evacuated from the facility by 10:42am, town officials said.

“The town of Trumbull is expanding in good faith thanks to the numerous EMS agencies that helped relocate nearly 200 residents,” the authorities said in a news release.

The town also thanked the “Trumbull Police, EMS, Emergency Management and Long Hill Fire Station for their commitment to the safe relocation of St. Joseph's Center residents.”

Town officials also pointed out that they do not yet have a specific timeline when the water issues at the Genesis St. Joseph Center are resolved or when residents can return to the facility.

“The authorities ensure that all residents are safe, comfortable and well cared for during this process,” town officials said.

According to town officials, families who want to check on the status of their loved ones can contact Genesis St. Joseph's Centre directly on 203-268-6204.

“Trumbull and the state towns continue to work together to ensure the safety and well-being of all residents affected by this situation,” town officials said. “The CT Public Health Department is a nursing home regulator. Trumbull will continue to work with state agencies in this situation.”

Town officials also said Teresian Towers and Carmel Ridge were not affected by the water issue.
