COVID Update – Good News!
February 4th, 2021Staff and residents are receiving their 2nd dose of Phizer COVID vaccine on…
Tuesday, Feb 2 from 11AM to 5 PM at New Westside Terrace Retirement and Assisted Living in Longview WA. If you have questions, please call 360-423-9392.
Sunday, Feb 7 from 11AM to 5 PM at Somerset Retirement and Assisted Living Longview WA. If you have questions, please call 360-423-7392.
The FDA website says 2nd dose of Phizer COVID vaccine is expected to give a significant level of immunity starting 3 weeks AFTER 2nd shot.
We test staff and residents regularly. There are no known cases of COVID at our facilities.
We want to stay COVID free. We will continue to follow COVID prevention safety protocols (masks, social distancing, restricted visitation, etc) until COVID is over. We ask for your ongoing cooperation and understanding. Our safety policies have been effective, and will be even more effective after vaccine starts to provide significant partial immunity (3 weeks after 2nd shot).
Note: Vaccination is expected to provide significant partial immunity, not complete immunity. This is why we must continue good safety practices until COVID is over. Keeping your loved ones safe is our top priority.
We continue having many weekly activities, including arts and crafts, entertainment, and exercise classes (safely done). We are safely maintaining a good quality of life for residents.
Staff and residents are still enjoying life and having fun, as you can see in other posts.

Thank you CVS (Target) pharmacy for putting on shot clinics at our buildings. You’re helping us keep our retirement communities safe and happy! We’re very appreciative! Also, thank you to Cowlitz Health Department and WA State government.
We’re having a good week at Somerset and New Westside Terrace Retirement Communities and Assisted Living in Longview WA.
We’re staying safe and still having fun at Somerset Retirement Community and Assisted Living in Longview WA. Our goal is to provide safe and fun senior living.
We feel privileged and thankful to be vaccinated. Thank you to all who made this possible.

Classic Car Show Parade
August 31st, 2020Let’s have fun and help our seniors have fun too. Social distancing and masks are required (if you get out of car or near seniors) to protect our seniors. We appreciate your cooperation and participation.
Please bring your classic car or street rod to Lowe’s parking lot Sept 3rd at 1:15 PM to form a car parade.
The parade will then drive from Lowes to Somerset Retirement Home parking lot at 2025 Tibbetts Drive (near OBHway Dairy Queen and OBHway Fibre Credit Union) to entertain seniors at Somerset.
After entertaining seniors at Somerset, the parade will then drive to New Westside Terrace Retirement Home at 1200 17th Ave (behind 15th Ave Safeway) to entertain seniors at New Westside Terrace.
This activity and your participation are important to our seniors during normal times, and even more important during COVID times because in Summer 2020 our seniors aren’t getting their usual summer field-trips and outings.
Safe outdoor activities with social distancing (and masks required) are essential for keeping our senior’s quality of life as happy as possible during summer 2020 while also keeping them safe from COVID.
You’re making our seniors lives better. Thank you for your participation!
