A Message to Clients and Family Members from Our Executive Director Regarding Covid-19
Dear Clients and Family Members:
As
we all navigate the uncertainty of the rapidly evolving coronavirus
(COVID-19), I want to assure you that Visiting Angels is taking all
necessary precautions to ensure our customers and employees are safe. We
have implemented strict adherence to guidelines and recommendations
from the CDC for our main office including increased cleaning in our
highest traffic areas and a focus on sanitizing and hygiene. In the
event we have an employee who is exposed to COVID-19, we are following
the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and New Jersey Department of
Health recommendations for testing, quarantine, and sanitizing of any
affected areas.
We
continue to closely monitor all news and developments regarding
COVID-19 within the U.S. and around the world and are incorporating them
into our planning and communications. All employees are being educated
on-going about the virus. We have assembled a cross functional team that
is working continuously to stay on top of the matter and take
appropriate actions to protect our employees and our customers. Not only
have we provided our associates with the recommended ways to help
prevent the spread of the virus, we are also encouraging any of our
Visiting Angels employees to stay home if they are sick.
We have included for your review two coronavirus CDC fact sheets:
- What you need to know about coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)
- What to do if you are sick with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)
We
want to personally thank all our customers on behalf of the Visiting
Angels family. We appreciate that these are unsettling times and are
committed to maintaining a safe environment for all.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding the proactive measures we are taking, please call the office at 609-883-8188.
Sincerely,
Rudy Tervooren
Executive Director and Co-Owner
