COVID-19 Update 11.4.22
Hello everyone,
We are happy to announce that we are able to drop the testing requirements for home visits (your loved one can go for a visit and come back without a COVID-19 test). At this time, we are not opening visits in the Rimland homes, to protect the health (against COVID-19 and cold/flu season) of the individuals we support.
We are happy to announce this with Thanksgiving coming up. For Thanksgiving pick ups, please keep in mind that we are having a Thanksgiving celebration at lunch time on Thanksgiving Day for the individual we support. This celebration will take place at our day program. We ask that families make arrangements to pick up their loved ones from the home and not the day program. We do not have the capacity to safely transport medication during the celebration to the day program from the homes. The individuals will be at the day program on Thanksgiving Day at 9am and home by 3pm.
Going forward, please contact one of your Associate Executive Directors with your pick up/visit plans. Here is the contact information if you do not have it and which homes they supervise.
