How exciting!!! I really love what I get to do each day. At the moment I'm trying to find a way to get funding for more vehicles. I know God can make the impossible happen. I have faith and I know one day we will be able to obtain more vehicles and be able to help more clients get to their appointments :-). I promise I will never stop fighting for our community.

Until now, face coverings had been strongly recommended. Under today’s executive order, people must wear face coverings when in public places where physical distancing is not possible.
In addition, certain businesses must have employees and customers wear face coverings, including state government agencies under the Governor’s Cabinet; workers and riders of transportation.
“Wearing a face covering is an easy thing to do that can make a huge impact for all of us. A major spike in cases would be catastrophic to the system, and without your cooperation, nurses and our fellow healthcare providers will have a harder time caring for sick patients for weeks and months to come,” said Dennis Taylor, a nurse, and President of the North Carolina Nurses Association.

Exceptions. Face Coverings do not need to be worn by an individual, worker, customer, or patron who:
1. Has a medical or behavioral condition or disability and cannot wear a face covering
(including, but not limited to, any person who has trouble breathing, or is unconscious or
incapacitated, or is otherwise unable to put on or remove the face covering without
assistance);
2. Is under eleven (11) years of age;
3. Is actively eating or drinking;
4. Is strenuously exercising or swimming;
5. Is seeking to communicate with someone who is hearing-impaired in a way that requires the
mouth to be visible;
6. Is giving a speech for a broadcast or to an audience;
7. Is working at home or alone in a vehicle;
8. Is temporarily removing his or her Face Covering to secure government or medical services
or for identification purposes;
9. Would be at risk from wearing a Face Covering at work, as determined by local, state, or
federal regulators or workplace safety guidelines;
10. Has found that his or her Face Covering is impeding visibility to operate equipment or a
vehicle; or
11. Is a child whose parent, guardian, or responsible person has been unable to place the Face
Covering safely on the child’s face.
12. Children under two (2) years of age should not wear a face covering.
