We Are in this Together
The Latest Updates on COVID-19
At CBC and throughout our family of providers, we are closely monitoring the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) and are in daily contact with state and federal health authorities on ways to reduce the spread of infection. As the situation is changing rapidly, please see the links below for the most up to date information.
One of the most important things we can do is remain calm and understand that we will be experiencing disruptions in our daily lives for some time to come. We are in this together, and we can all help in slowing the spread of the virus over the coming weeks.
Basic Hygiene Practices are Effective and Very Important
It’s further recommended that we practice social distancing. This is especially important for older people or persons with immune systems that may be weakened or compromised. Practicing social distancing means:
- Keeping 6 feet away from others as much as possible.
- Avoid places where large crowds gather and postpone social gatherings for the time being.
- Limiting hugging and handshakes — everyone understands a simple wave and a smile.
- Staying connected to others but doing it in ways other than face-to-face. Social distancing does not have to mean isolation.
- Being creative — for instance, ordering your groceries online and picking them up.
If you, or someone in your household, feels sick or develops symptoms related to COVID-19 such as shortness of breath, cough, fever, and/or sore throat:
- Contact your supervisor about not coming to work
- Contact your healthcare provider or local health department
If you have service-related questions, please contact your assigned Clinical Supervisor.
If you are an employee with a question, you can contact your Clinical Supervisor or Laura Hayes Chief of Quality, Safety, and Performance Improvement at lhayes@cbcare.com
