Butler County saw no movement Monday in its coronavirus numbers, despite one COVID-19 death reported at Butler Memorial Hospital.

Butler Health System officials confirmed that one person — a Butler County resident — died Sunday due to the coronavirus.

No new cases were added to the county's 230 confirmed cases of COVID-19, according to the Pennsylvania Department of Health, and its death toll remained at 12. It had been four weeks since the county has recorded a death due to COVID-19, but that will likely change once the state's data catches up to the recently reported death.

“We're still seeing sustained low new case counts, which is really good news,” said Gov. Tom Wolf in a news conference Monday.

Wolf also said the state is not experiencing the same resurgence in cases that other states around the country are as they reopen their economies.

“That's just not happening here in Pa.,” Wolf said. “That is because we have been methodical about the way we reopen.”

During the same news conference, Wolf announced plans to direct CARES Act funding toward professionals and organizations that provide service and support for people with intellectual disabilities.

“This funding is going to improve the quality of life for these Pennsylvanians throughout the COVID-19 crisis,” Wolf said. “It's going to provide their families and loved ones with relief knowing that we're committed to providing the highest level of care possible, even during a pandemic like this one.”

Wolf was joined by Department of Human Services Secretary Teresa Miller, who elaborated on the spending.

Of the $260 million, $90 million will go to providers of residential, respite and shift nursing services; $80 million will go to providers of Community Participation Support services for 120 days of retainer payments, covering operations from March through June; $90 million will go to providers of in-home and community, supported and small group employment, companion and transportation trip services for 120 days of retainer payments, covering operations from March through June.

Miller said the funding would help more than 35,000 Pennsylvanians who receive assistance through the Department of Human Services. She said she was thankful to the providers and professionals who prioritized the health of those they served in addition to their own and the health of their families.

“In normal times, this work can change lives and supports opportunity and inclusion for people who were formerly limited and separated from society,” Miller said. “In the midst of a global pandemic, this work is life-sustaining and heroic.”

Miller said the work of these professionals has been vital and has come with risks. She said people with disabilities commonly have co-occurring chronic health needs that can cause further complications or exacerbate COVID-19's effect on the body.

“This is not work anyone can do without coming into contact with the person receiving services,” Miller said. “The funding we're releasing today will help this vital network continue after what we know has been a very difficult three months.”

Also Monday, state Secretary of Health Dr. Rachel Levine announced a partnership with General Healthcare Resources to assist with the COVID-19 response, specifically addressing long-term care facilities.

“COVID-19 is a particularly challenging situation for congregate settings, particularly our long-term care facilities,” Levine said Monday in a news release. “These teams are assisting us in our response in the hardest-hit areas as we work to protect the public health and safety of Pennsylvanians.”

General Healthcare Resources is a health care and medical staffing agency that specializes in local nursing, allied health and pharmacy staffing.

The company will deploy on-site assessment teams to assist with infection control practices, staffing and PPE training needs. The team will also assist with specimen collection and urgent staffing needs.

The Department of Health will fund 41 individuals, who will be deployed for one year.

“We're honored to be supporting this program and are committed to providing the state of Pennsylvania with the professional, qualified staff they need to meet this challenge within the senior community,” said Laura Magner, president and COO of General Healthcare Resources.

Magner said there are also opportunities for others to join its workforce addressing COVID-19.

Magner said any experienced RNs, LPNs, medical assistants, CNAs, EMTs or other health care professionals interested in joining the effort should call 800-879-4471.
