Jamie,
Can you share some of the plans implemented. We are currently creating a plan ourselves as well.
We were also wondering if it will be okay to be able to move clients to one location if a lot of our staff find themselves in a situation were they can't come to work because of being sick. We just don't know if it will be something allow by the state laws.
Thanks,
Carmen

Hi all,
I just met all morning with my management staff to come up with a contingency emergency plan for my agency in case we are faced with sick clients and sick staff. It was a tuff exercise for sure. I’m certain that the rest of you have done this or are starting to do it, but if not, I just want to urge you to spend some time thinking about the “what if’s” and how you will respond.
Pete is in ongoing talks with the Department and other agencies to get out information, in particular identifying if any rule relief can be expected if the worst scenarios hit. More information to come.
Planning for a crises is hard, but very necessary.
Stay positive my friends.
