Impact of Safer at Home on the disabled

People of all abilities are coping with the current health crisis in different ways.  Door County Children Services Manager Beth Chisholm works in the area of children's long-term support waiver and the birth-to-three program.  She says some families that are participating in the county programs are doing quite well during the Safer At Home Order.

 

 

Chisholm adds that some participants are at a disadvantage right now because of more isolation and less time with their caregivers.

 

 

Chisholm notes that the increased demands on caregivers make it challenging for the clients to keep up with their development. This is a first in a series on the impact of COVID-19 crisis measures on the elderly and disabled.
