Dear clients,
These past couple of months have been trying for all of us. There is still a massive shortage of PPE (Gloves, Masks, Disinfectants, etc.). Hope Home Care is still working diligently to make sure these are available for all of our caregivers in order to provide care safely and effectively. We have already provided KN-95 masks and gloves, and today we were able to secure more masks and hand sanitizer for our caregivers. The CDC has recommended the use of KN-95 Masks in situations where there is a potential for exposure.
To assist with the shortage of PPE, we have ordered triple ply cloth masks as well. The cloth masks will be used in everyday situations, while the KN-95 masks should be reserved for when it is absolutely necessary and will be reused in accordance to the CDC guidelines. We should be receiving these supplies soon and will have them out to you as soon as possible.
The most helpful practice is to stay at home to limit exposure. We urge everybody to limit contact with those that are vulnerable to COVID-19 for their safety and yours. If you or a loved one are showing any symptoms, please contact your doctor immediately. In addition, it is important to stay informed using official sources. We have provided some links to official sources below.
We appreciate everyone’s efforts and hope you and your family will stay safe.
Best wishes,
Hope Home Care
