The Wisconsin Department of Health Services is conducting public health investigations at six Rock County long-term care facilities, three non-health care workplaces and one health care facility.

The state released the names of five Rock County nursing homes with COVID-19 outbreaks: Autumn Lake Healthcare at Beloit, Evansville Manor, Green Knolls at Beloit, Oak Park and St. Elizabeth Nursing Home.

DHS did not include nursing homes with fewer than 10 beds as part of this data.

The Rock County Public Health Department previously named four of the five senior-care facilities with outbreaks.

Rock County’s 10 public health investigations is tied for the seventh-most of any county in Wisconsin.
