Business Updates
We will be providing updates here as many of our Downtown offices adjust to social distancing. If you have a business update you would like us to add, please send it to info@downtownlincoln.org
Effective Wednesday, April 15, the Aging Partners office at 1005 O St. will be closed until further notice. Aging Partners will close all its Senior Centers and the Fitness Center and cancel all event and training programming beginning Wednesday, March 18. The agency is working with Tabitha to deliver meals to the homes of the most frail seniors, and take these steps:
- Considering options for pausing non-critical services so that those resources can be focused on COVID-19
- Developing contingencies for access to meals for those seniors who are most vulnerable and who depend upon our senior centers for daily meals
- Reaching out to elder clients to check on their future needs
- Adapting the methods used to provide care management services to reduce the spread of virus to clients and staff, including less face-to-face and more telephone interaction.
"Seniors are of particular risk due to health conditions and age, and families should be planning how they will care for their loved ones if someone in the family becomes ill," said Randy Jones, Aging Partners Director. "Friends, family and neighbors should check on the elderly regularly to make sure they are healthy. Other ways to help are to offer food and medication pick-up and delivery. The community depends upon those caregivers - whether family members or professionals - to continue their services if healthy, but also to plan on contingencies so that care can continue to be provided."
