We hope that you and your family are safe and healthy as we all embrace the changes that COVID-19 has brought.
As of today, our office is open. All our staff members are here and following the appropriate safety precautions to create a healthy and productive workplace. Effective August 30, 2021, Governor Pritzker announced a statewide indoor mask mandate for Illinoisians regardless of vaccination status. We are following the mask mandate and have installed extra air purifiers as well as respecting social distancing when possible.
You may still be unable or uncomfortable with meeting in person. If so, our staff has transitioned to working remotely when needed with access to client files and information. We understand that many clients’ businesses now face new challenges, and we are here to help you.
State health officials are stressing the following precautions for those who are at high risk for serious illness:
Get vaccinated and stay up-to-date on recommended booster shots to protect yourself, your loved ones and friends.
If you are in an area with rising COVID-19 infections, wear a mask if entering indoor spaces with other people present and consider avoiding large gatherings.
Stick to well-ventilated areas if you are not wearing a mask indoors around other people.
If you feel flu-like symptoms, self-isolate and stay home from work as well as social gatherings; and obtain a test as quickly as possible.
If you test positive, talk to your provider immediately so you can get COVID-19 treatment within five days of starting to feel sick. Also, communicate about the positive result with any persons you have been in close contact within two days of falling sick or testing positive.
Continue to frequently wash your hands and cover coughs and sneezes.
