CICS COVID-19 Information |
|
As COVID-19 (Coronovirus) is a unique situation, CICS wants to keep our staff, patients and community safe and maintain client service. We will continue to get our information from reliable sources and suggest you do the same. We are closely following advice from both the World Health Organization ("WHO"), the Cayman Islands Government and private doctors. Charity Vouchers CICS staff will not provide charity vouchers for mammograms, pap tests, PSA tests, mouth cancer screening or throat cancer screenings for 1 month. We will re-evaluate this April 15, 2020. Education and Awareness Events CICS staff will not provide education or awareness events such as lunch and learns for corporations, schools or churches in an effort to reduce the need for groups of people to gather publicly. We will re-evaluate this April 15, 2020. Cancer Patients Our doors are closed to ALL visitors. Your immune system may be compromised and we do not want you to take any unnecessary risk by interacting with anyone who might be sick. Please call us at 949-7618 if you need something or have a question. Our financial aid team can be reached by email at [email protected] or [email protected]. We will re-evaluate this April 15, 2020. Self-Isolation As a staff we will adhere to self-isolation guidelines and other advice issued by the WHO and relevant governing bodies. If any staff have a runny nose, fever, or are just feeling unwell, they are not coming to the office. Future Updates We continue to assess the impact of this situation on a daily basis and are monitoring closely the advice given by the authorities. We will provide further updates regarding the impacts to our work and services through social media. As recommended by the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) we are also encouraging you to please implement social distancing. Although our doors are closed to ALL visitors, please note that we can still be reached via email at Jennifer Weber - [email protected], Victoria Gray - [email protected], Catherine Ebanks - [email protected], Elna Bush - [email protected] or at 949-7618. We all need to be safe at this time! CICS Team #StayHomeCayman
