Kirkland's Life Care still needs help!

I hope I can draw attention to this. They still need hands on help and they have not received formal mental health support. People in the local community have brought food and drinks to the center and exhausted workers have been in tears they are so grateful. But they need staffing help.

"If any suspected case of COVID‐19 infection occurs, transfer to a specialized facility as soon as possible is crucial since long‐term care facilities are not adequately equipped to effectively manage case containment. While waiting for the transfer, placing the patient in a single room, wearing a mask (N95 or FFP2 respirators for healthcare practitioners), and careful hand hygiene using alcohol‐based hand rub (or soap and water when hands are visibly soiled) are the key prevention measures to limit spread of COVID‐19. They must also be combined with eye protection and systematic use of disposable blouses and gloves to provide the optimal level of protection."

We aren't doing this. Why?
