COVID-19 Positive at 440 River Road

September 24, 2020

We have recently become aware of a volunteer who worked within the main building at 440 River Road (area of the building that uses the main entrance doors) who has tested positive for COVID-19. The volunteer was not in direct contact with people we support and wore a mask at all times while in the building. The volunteer last worked September 18 during the day. We hope they have a quick recovery.
At this time, the risk of transmission has been deemed low and no one within our organization was identified as a close contact through the contact tracing process.
We are working with Public Health on contact tracing and anyone who is considered a contact will receive a call and additional instructions.
This does mean that Health & Transition Services’ outbreak status will be extended an additional 28 days (this is automatic with any confirmed case).
If any new information becomes available, we will share that information with you.
