The Lifestyle Center set to re-open on Friday, June 12
VISALIA – The Lifestyle Center, a division of Kaweah Delta, has announced
that it will re-open on Friday, June 12, after securing approval from
the State and the County.
The medically-based fitness and rehabilitation facility will re-open at
4:30 a.m. on Friday in the first step of its phased re-opening plan. Initially,
the center will re-open with cardio and strength equipment (spaced six
feet apart throughout the facility and in the gymnasium area), along with
the track, the lap pool, the warm water pool and restrooms. TLC’s
phased re-opening plan, which follow guidelines from the State, the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention and the Medical Fitness Association,
is listed on its website at
www.thelifestylecenter.org.
“Our hope is that it won’t be long until we can safely support
a full re-opening of our facility,” said Patrick Tazio, Director
of The Lifestyle Center. “We know this has not been an easy time
for any of us, but we hope this is a sign of good things to come.”
In order to gain entry, members will undergo temperature checks, sanitize
their hands, etc. The number of COVID-19 cases per 100,000 residents in
Tulare County, will determine the timeline of the center’s phase
II and phase III rollout. “We will continue to monitor these statistics
and hope that we will have moved into other phases of re-opening by July
1,” Tazio said.
TLC closed its doors on March 18 in response to the Governor’s shutdown
order. TLC is a division of Kaweah Delta Health Care District and a medically-based
fitness and rehabilitation facility that offers a wide variety of state-of-the-art
equipment, exercise rooms, and activities for all ages and abilities in
a 55,000-square-foot facility in Visalia.
