COVID-19 Update 1.27.22
Hello Rimland Families,
As you can see from the Illinois Department of Public Health link posted below, the positivity rate in our area is almost below 8 percent. Once we reach below the 8 percent positivity rate in our area, we can begin to relax visitation guidelines. Please review the following guidelines.
We CANNOT have any guardians, visitors, etc. in the homes. Guardians cannot go in the homes when they drop off their loved ones. Additionally, no visits can take place in the homes. You can pick up your loved ones from the group home (or main office/CDS) for a home visit or take them out for a walk, ride, etc. If your loved one is going on a home visit, please schedule a visit with Barbara Cooper or Samina Rahim: bcooper@rimland.org or srahim@rimland.org.
We will also start doing visits at the main office. Those visits can be held as we did a few months ago. They can be 10am – 3pm Monday – Friday for an hour. Please schedule a visit with Barbara Cooper or Samina Rahim: bcooper@rimland.org or srahim@rimland.org. Visitors are subject to be tested for COVID-19 and must show proof of being fully vaccinated.
We look forward to seeing you,
The Rimland Team
