CODE RED MESSAGE – 3/30/20

Good Morning.  This is Lisa Rabideau from the Burrillville Police Department with a Code Red message for all Burrillville residents, repeating information that was sent out yesterday afternoon.

The Town of Burrillville is offering a grocery and pharmaceutical delivery program for those 60 years of age or older who are housebound or have limited transportation capabilities. We can help you get basic necessities from Lil General and IGA and prescriptions from CVS. The Town is also offering Meals on Wheels frozen entrees for those 60 years of age or older and emergency ready-to-eat meals for children and families in need.  Please call Andrea at 401-710-7429 and leave a message with your name and contact information.  Again, that’s 710-7429

 

In the continuing fight against the spread of the Coronavirus, Rhode Island Governor Gina Raimondo has issued the following Orders, which are mandatory, effective immediately, and in effect through April 13, 2020, for all Rhode Island residents.

Staying At Home Restrictions

All Rhode Island residents are required to stay home unless traveling to work, traveling for medical treatment or obtaining necessities (food, medicine, gas, etc.). Rhode Island residents may still go outside to exercise and get fresh air, however, they must practice social distancing while outside and avoid touching surfaces frequently touched by others.

 

 Any Rhode Island employer with employees who live in other states shall use all means available to enable these employees to telecommute or make other work-from-home arrangements. This provision shall not apply to public health, public safety, or healthcare workers.

Additional Mandatory Gathering Restrictions:

All gatherings of more than five (5) people in any public or private space such as an auditorium, stadium, arena, large conference room, meeting hall, library, theater, place of worship, parade, fair, festival, park or beach, are prohibited.

 

Additional Quarantine Restrictions

Any person who lives in Rhode Island and works in another state who can work from home is required to do so. To the extent such a person cannot perform his or her functions via telework or other work from home arrangements, that person shall self-quarantine when not at work. This quarantine restriction shall not apply to public health, public safety, or healthcare workers.

 

Once again the contact number for Andrea for the Burrillville  services is 401-710-7429  that’s 710-7429

 

Thank you and stay safe.
