Due to the COViD-19 Virus, many people are social distanced in their homes
During this time of recommended social distance, if you have elderly neighbors or someone that has underlying health issues please keep a check on them to see if they need anything. Please use safe hygiene precautions such as keeping distance between you and them, wash your hands before and after a possible face to face and call us if you (they) need services. If it is an emergency, call 911. We just need to remember that not everyone has someone to check on them and be a support.
