Boulder / Broomfield 'Safer at Home' Guidelines

Home Health Care Keeps Seniors Safe In Boulder and Broomfield

Colorado has slowed the spread of COVID-19 through Stay-at-Home and Safer at Home orders, and "we must keep it up," says the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment.

Public Health is still advising SAFER AT HOME in Level 2 Re-opening, as the virus is still present in Colorado and can re-surge at any time. According to the Departement of Health Colorado, seniors are all still safer at home, but we are now able to "practice greater social distancing in our great outdoors than in confined indoor spaces."

"Everyone still needs to do their part for themselves, their loved ones, and our community", and now that we are in Level 2, we are all still Safer at Home or in the Vast, Great Outdoors getting some fresh air! "Much of Colorado is now open with restrictions to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and to protect those at highest risk for severe illness." We still need to be prepared for state and local public health orders to be extended, amended, or changed, as required, to protect public health. This means we may move between the different levels during this pandemic. 

Home health care became more important than ever during the virus outbreak, especially for Boulder and Brromfield's elderly and those living with serious illness. While staying at home is the safest place during the pandemic, our home care team has stepped up to provide a higher level of in-home care to meet strict safety standards and protocols to help fight the virus.
