Cope Foundation chief executive Sean Abbott has issued the following statement in light of the deteriorating COVID-19 situation;
“With the Covid 19 situation deteriorating and cases rising exponentially, the coming weeks will be incredibly challenging for Cope Foundation.
The rise in community transmission is starting to impact Cope Foundation, and we already have a number of staff isolating or restricting their movements. This is having an unavoidable effect on our ability to provide services to people we support.
Unfortunately, it is expected that we will need to curtail some of our services and supports so that we can keep people safe. The local Cope Foundation service manager will contact the people we support and their families directly to discuss how it may impact them.
We are confident that we can work together to limit the spread of Covid 19 and keep the people we support, our teams and the broader community safe. We are hopeful that once we turn a corner on this latest surge, we can look forward to the vaccination programme’s roll-out and a safer, healthier 2021.
If any of the people we support or their families have any questions or concerns, please contact your local manager who will assist you.
To the public, we would like to take this opportunity to echo the broader public health message and ask them to limit their number of contacts. If we again act as a community, we can protect the most vulnerable.”
