Public Service Announcements Regarding Visitation in LTC Facilities
NCDHHS and AARP team up on PSAs
Forwarded on behalf of DHSR

Dear Adult Care Home & Family Care Home Providers:
 
The NCDHHS and AARP have collaborated to create several Public Service Announcements (PSAs) regarding visitation in N.C. long-term care facilities. You may have seen some of these on social media, or on the TV or radio recently.
 
Here is a link to the PSAs on YouTube. These videos stress the importance of allowing visitation always, but especially during the holidays. We sincerely appreciate those who are already doing so. Please be sure to refer to the most recent NCDHHS guidance on visitation, testing and quarantine at https://covid19.ncdhhs.gov/media/2334/open.
 
 
Thank you for your continuing care of the residents in your communities and especially during this holiday season. I hope you, your staff, and residents have a happy and healthy holiday!
 
Megan Lamphere, MSW
