Senior companion visits suspended
At SpiriTrust Lutheran® we are committed to caring for the total well-being of those we serve and those that serve. As such, we are closely monitoring ongoing developments related to coronavirus (COVID-19) and are taking all necessary precautions to prevent the spread of the virus to our residents, clients, participants, team members and volunteers. Based on recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid and the PA Department of Health, we have made the decision to suspend the Senior Companion Program until further notice.
We recognize that people value the companionship, connection, and respite that senior companions provide, and we look forward to serving the community again in the future once this unprecedented health care crisis has subsided.
