Our company has been monitoring developments with COVID-19 (2019 Novel Coronavirus). When responding to an infectious disease, our company closely follows the recommendations made by our state and county health department. We also monitor and follow guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention plus the World Health Organization.

WHAT IS THE COMPANY DOING ?

Our staff is taking necessary steps to prepare for the potential spread of Coronavirus. Prevention is a priority. Cleaning and disinfecting surfaces that are frequently touched is important. All staff must follow strict procedures for frequent and thorough cleaning and disinfecting.

The company has taken these steps outlined in our emergency plan:

Maintenance & Cleaning staff has begun wiping down all surfaces that are frequent points of contact. Staff will be using disinfectant and germicidal wipes more frequently each day. Wiping down handrails and stanchions is already a part of daily duties when employees are cleaning. These steps are in addition to responding quickly to clean up notices and biohazards plus the regular cleaning process.

Purchasing staff has made sure that current inventories are adequately stocked. This includes soaps and disinfectants, hand wipes and sanitizers, plus face masks for positions that require them.

WHAT CAN I DO TO STAY HEALTHY ?

The current risk from this virus is considered low. Follow the same precautions recommended for avoiding colds and flu. If you believe that you may have been exposed to coronavirus, consult with your doctor or health care provider as soon as possible.
