COVID-19 deaths at nursing homes and long-term care facilities account for more than one-third of Indiana's confirmed and presumed virus death toll.

Last month, Indiana ordered nursing homes to communicate with residents and families daily about any COVID-19 cases in their facilities.

But Greene County's Glenburn Home is going one step further — it's providing the public with detailed daily updates about the number of coronavirus cases, deaths and recoveries among its residents and employees.

The daily reports, shared on Glenburn's website and on Facebook, detail not only cases and deaths, but recovery statistics and whether patients are at home or in the hospital. 

Wednesday, Glenburn reported 15 confirmed deaths and one suspected COVID-19 death. In total, the facility says it has seen 75 positive cases and 28 recoveries among residents, as well as 15 positive cases and 14 recoveries among employees.
