Coronavirus, or COVID-19, continues to be an evolving situation even months after the initial outbreak. Leaders at Your Center are continually monitoring the situation in coordination with public health officials and following all CDC recommendations and guidelines. Your health and safety is our highest priority as we move forward in reopening some of our locations.

Your Center is committed to maintaining the health and safety of our clients and staff. During this time, we are doing everything that we can to protect clients and staff by actively following all recommendations made by the CDC and the state of Delaware.

This includes thorough and frequent hand-washing, heightened cleaning measures, and social distancing. All larger group meetings have changed to virtual communications and non-essential staff are working from home in an effort to support social distancing.  

These symptoms or combinations of symptoms may have COVID-19: 

• Cough 
• Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing 

Or at least two of these symptoms: 

• Fever 
• Chills 
• Repeated shaking with chills 
• Muscle or body aches 
• Headache 
• Sore throat 
• New loss of taste or smell 
• Congestion or runny nose 
• Nausea or vomiting 
• Diarrhea 

 If you think you have been exposed to COVID-19 and develop a fever and symptoms call your healthcare provider for medical advice. You can find information about testing sites and procedures here for the next steps if you have been exposed.  

There are simple everyday preventive actions to help mitigate the spread of respiratory viruses, including:

• Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
• Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. Use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol if soap and water are not available.
• Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
• Routinely clean all frequently touched surfaces in the workplace, such as workstations, counter-tops, and doorknobs.

• As businesses begin to open up, be sure to always wear a mask, and strictly follow your state’s guidelines and restrictions.  
  
• Stay 6 feet apart to maintain social distancing requirements. 
  
• Avoid unnecessary contact with others. 
  
• Quarantine yourself for 14 days if you suspect you were exposed to coronavirus. Better safe than sorry. 
  
• Maintain preventative cleaning measures. 

Follow the CDC’s guide to daily life and travel suggestions.
