HouseCheck and Stayhealthy partner to launch leading edge home cleaning and decontamination protocol

Leave a comment


News Image

It was imperative to enlist the expertise of professionals and scientists from HouseCheck to debunk the many cleaning myths running rampant today and to create a science-based, reliable system that people can trust to keep their homes safe.


BOISE, Idaho (PRWEB)

National HouseCheck Corporation, in collaboration with health and wellness industry leader Stayhealthy Inc., has created a public portal for combating the spread of bacteria, mold, and viruses in the home. The CovidClean website provides users with proprietary cleaning and disinfectant guidelines, protocols, and a library of how-to tutorials and videos generated from industry leading microbiologists, hospital inspection specialists and environmental scientists.

“Initially developed for use at large medical, commercial, government, and corporate facilities, this decontamination program is now being made available to every US household,” stated Ken Siders, Sr. VP of HouseCheck Environmental Services and industry-acknowledged environmental scientist. “HouseCheck’s key scientists have a long history of identifying and remediating all kinds of pathogens in homes and commercial structures, so it was a natural fit for us to apply our years of knowledge to the coronavirus epidemic.”

The company’s innovative cleaning and disinfecting protocol is now available at CovidClean.HouseCheck.com, a webpage established by HouseCheck and Stayhealthy, Inc. for the specific purpose of providing access to what could well be life-saving information.

John Collins, Founder and CEO of Stayhealthy, says, “It seems that threats to our health are always lurking. Our strongest line of defense against them is to ensure our homes are not only clean, but disinfected. There is so much conflicting information on the web about how to sanitize our personal spaces, some of which is downright deadly. In fact, the CDC has just reported that accidental poisonings from the misuse of disinfectants are soaring as people attempt to protect their families from COVID-19. We felt it was imperative to enlist the expertise of professionals and scientists from HouseCheck to debunk the many cleaning myths running rampant today and to create a science-based, reliable system that people can trust to keep their homes safe.”

“Our home-use protocol is effective and uses consumer-based, over-the-counter cleaning and disinfecting products that most people already have in their homes,” adds HouseCheck CEO, Bill Klehm. “HouseCheck’s mission is rooted in protecting a home and those who live within it. Making this information and these tools available to everyone is a reflection of that commitment.”

A small one-time fee provides immediate, unlimited access to CovidClean.HouseCheck.com, where users will access simple written and video instructions on how to safely and effectively disinfect their homes using common, readily accessible products. The company plans to continue adding new content and videos to the webpage as the fight against coronavirus continues to unfold.

Charles E. Crutchfield III, M.D. Request That the Governor and Legislators to Repeal MinnesotaCare Tax

Leave a comment


Charles E. Crutchfield III, M.D.

“Having physicians, hospitals, and other caregivers step up to the plate, risk the health of themselves and their families, and then to place a tax on them for so heroically answering the call in this pandemic flies in the face of all that is fair and reasonable,” states Dr.Crutchfield.


EAGAN, Minn. (PRWEB)

Dr. Crutchfield sent a letter to the Governor and several key legislators, The Honorable Melissa Hortman, The Honorable Kurt Daudt, The Honorable Paul Gazelka, The Honorable Susan Kent, The Honorable Michelle Benson, The Honorable John Marty, The Honorable Rena Moran, The Honorable Deb Kiel, asking the Minnesota Care tax to be discontinued. “Having physicians, hospitals, and other caregivers step up to the plate, risk the health of themselves and their families, and then to place a tax on them for so heroically answering the call in this pandemic flies in the face of all that is reasonable, just and fair. It is time to repeal this tax,” states Dr.Crutchfield.

Subject: Request to Eliminate MinnesotaCare Tax during COVID-19 Pandemic

Dear Governor Walz:

As the former President of the Minnesota Association of Black Physicians that backed you for Governor – our first-ever endorsement – thank you for your leadership during this time. As we navigate this crisis, I ask you to please review the equity and fairness of the Minnesota Medical Provider Tax.

Physicians are putting their lives on the line to care for critically ill patients. It seems terribly unfair to tax them while they are doing this or caring for any other patients.

While the recent MinnesotaCare Tax grace period may help clinics like ours already forced to furlough staff, the pandemic reveals the negative impacts of this aged tax once created to fund healthcare for those without coverage. New federal and state initiatives have reduced that need, and while the tax provides coverage for some, its surpluses are used on programs not intended.

The pandemic shows the tax to be a financial and administrative burden on those putting their lives on the line to care for patients afflicted by COVID-19 as well as a cost to patients themselves. It goes against Minnesotan common sense to hit our exhausted medical community with a tax of attainder to pay for a benefit intended for all. No other critical industry, such as farming or construction, faces a targeted tax on those who produce public value.

The MinnesotaCare Tax exclusively hits patients and doctors at a time when they can least endure it. Like other small businesses, independent clinics have suffered enormous losses, and patient avoidance has led to massive layoffs. People needing care of all types are now hit with a tax when scrambling to make ends meet while unemployed or losing their small businesses.

Our clinic conducts skin cancer evaluations, where delay in diagnosis can cost a patient their chance of survival. We’ve already furloughed 40% of our staff and may lay off more if the crisis continues. The MinnesotaCare Tax has worsened this painful circumstance.

Governor Walz, thank you for all you do and for taking the time to read my letter. Please consider my request to dispense with a tax that burdens those giving their best at a time when they can least afford it. I’d be pleased to speak further with you or any member of your staff.

Sincerely,

Charles E. Crutchfield III, M.D.

“As many people are now trying to file their taxes online, we are happy to answer their questions by phone to help them as best as we are able,” says Rebecca Full, VITA Program Manager.


FREDERICK, Md. (PRWEB)

Until May 21, 2020, United Way of Frederick County is now offering a free tax preparation assistance hotline to individuals who need help filing their taxes online.

Individuals who make $56,000 or less annually can receive free tax help by calling 2-1-1 or 866-411-6803. When calling the hotline, individuals will put in a request for help by providing information to the intake specialist and then will receive a call back from an IRS-certified tax preparer within 48 hours.

“As many people are now trying to file their taxes online, we are happy to answer their questions by phone to help them as best as we are able,” says Rebecca Full, VITA Program Manager. “If you are using an online software and have questions about specific tax policy, we hope to be able to walk you through to the next step,” she adds.

United Way of Frederick County’s annual free tax preparation program, VITA (Volunteer Income Tax Assistance), allows eligible individuals to schedule an appointment and have their taxes done in person at no cost. However, due to COVID-19, the program had to shut down early. In the 2018 tax season, VITA provided service to over 600 moderate to low income households in Frederick County. United Way of Frederick County originally planned to exceed that number this year.

Rabbi Brian Zachary Mayer of Portland Releases New (Not-Boring) Meditation Book for Would-Be Meditators

Leave a comment


“Meditation is inherently boring,” says Mayer. “The instructions don’t need to suck.”


PORTLAND, Ore. (PRWEB)

Quarantine, self-isolation, wall-to-wall media coverage, working (and schooling) from home… The COVID-19 pandemic is certainly taking a toll on our mental well-being. Meditation is Magic, from Portland Rabbi Brian Zachary Mayer, makes meditation and mindfulness – a must in this crazy time – easy, accessible and fun.

The comic-book-esque, graphic-novel style how-to avoids jargon and woo-woo spiritual fluff. It follows two characters, Dragon and Stallion, as they learn mindfulness and meditation from a shape-shifting Rabbi who appears as everyone from Warhol to Mr. Rogers and from Yoda to Richard Simmons.

The oversized, full color book complete with prizes at the back was designed as an on-ramp for first-time, teen, and would-be ADHD meditators. (The rabbi includes instructions on using this book for parent-teen and just adult book clubs.)

“Meditation is boring,” says Mayer. “There’s no way around that. And I’ve seen too many people needlessly get stuck in lifeless instructions Learning how to meditate shouldn’t be boring or hard to do. And in our hectic, noisy lives, we need to be able to sit still.”

The bottom line, says Mayer? Just f*cking sit there. #JFST

Meditation is Magic takes the “am I doing this wrong?” out of the meditation learning equation.

Meditation is Magic is available via Amazon, Barnes & Noble and ROTB.org.

Rabbi Brian lives in Portland, Oregon and runs an email-based congregation of approximately 3,000 loyal followers — most of whom never thought they would have a rabbi in their lives.

Agency Announces Daily Inspirational Call as Part of Faith Partnership Initiative

Leave a comment


During times of uncertainty, many people lean on their faith to help get them through difficulties. We understand the times in which we are living. We also understand the plight of our region’s people. We created this platform to connect, encourage, and inspire hope.


MONROE, La. (PRWEB)

Northeast Delta Human Services Authority announced today that it would be launching a daily inspirational call as part of its Faith Partnership Initiative.

The agency’s Faith Partnership Initiative exists as a means of engaging with faith-based communities to help enrich traditional behavioral health services in a unique way that government alone cannot. As the number of COVID-19 cases in northeast Louisiana continues to rise, Northeast Delta HSA has called on regional faith leaders to help share a message of faith and hope as the agency employs science, evidence-based treatment, and preventive practices.

Dr. Carolyn Hunt and Bishop Danny Hunt of Walk in the Word Kingdom Church of Monroe, Pastor John Dobbs of Forsythe Church of Christ in Monroe, and Pastor Jerry Baldwin of New Living Word Ministries in Ruston will be facilitating the daily calls and offering messages of hope, understanding, encouragement, and overcoming adversity.

“During times of uncertainty, many people lean on their faith to help get them through difficulties,” said Dr. Monteic A. Sizer, executive director of Northeast Delta. “We understand the times in which we are living. We also understand the plight of our region’s people. We created this platform to connect, encourage, and inspire hope during this difficult time.”

This daily call is just one of the many platforms that Northeast Delta uses to help meet the needs of the region’s people. The agency provides services for those with behavioral health issues, addiction, and developmental disabilities through its integrated healthcare model, as well as prevention and wellness services for youth, seniors, and the community at large. These individuals are among the most vulnerable during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“This pandemic is only increasing the level of anxiety and trauma for those who are already dealing with mental illness, developmental disability, addiction, and primary health challenges,” said Sizer. “And as the region’s safety net service provider and trusted source of information for many across northeast Louisiana, it is essential for us to do everything we can to help people remain hopeful and focused on our collective regional recovery efforts.”

All citizens of northeast Louisiana and other interested individuals are invited to join Northeast Delta’s Faith Partnership Initiative for We Will Rise: Creating Hope each Monday-Friday at 12:00 p.m. The call can be accessed by dialing the toll-free number, (877) 402-9757, and using code 890 437. The first call will be held on Monday, April 27.

About Northeast Delta Human Services Authority

Guest Safety Emerges as the Critical Focus of the Reopening Phase, Harri Responds with Revolutionary Employee Health Check Platform

Leave a comment


News Image


NEW YORK (PRWEB)

Harri, an enterprise human capital management platform serving 20,000 restaurant and hotel locations that represent over 3 million hospitality employees, launches a COVID-19 Employee Health Check Platform, the first integrated response to efficiently survey an employee’s health symptoms before entering the restaurant and starting their shift. With the health and safety of team members, customers, and the community at large a top priority, the process to support that responsibility requires a robust and transparent digital solution.

Using Harri Live, the core operations mobile app for Harri’s HCM suite, managers can gather an employee’s health symptoms, prior to starting their shift, by following a pre-built COVID-19 health questionnaire and logging an employees temperature. Based on the answers supplied and the employee’s temperature reading, the system will alert the manager to whether the employee passed or failed the health check.

Records of completed health checks are easily reportable for the business to view and print in real-time. Upon completion of the health check, a business can print the results of the collective health checks and post them prominently at the entry to the restaurant or include with a delivery order. Transparency and accountability are key outcomes of the process.

“Ensuring that employees know they are safe, within the flow of work, is of the utmost importance. Simultaneously, it’s critical for customers to know and trust that their restaurant of choice is implementing every health and safety precaution possible,” said Luke Fryer, Founder and CEO of Harri. “By giving restaurants a means to implement these precautionary measures, gather accurate and objective information regarding an employee’s health, and the ability to conduct these checks outside of the establishment in contrast to self reporting within the restaurant, we hope to be part of the solution to stop the spread of COVID-19 and to help restaurants regain their economic footing at this critical time.”

The COVID-19 Employee Health Check Platform, delivers the following capabilities:

  • Accessible on Harri Live, a native mobile application available for Android and iOS devices

  • Pre-built, interactive COVID-19 health questionnaire for managers to administrate

  • Ability to digitally log an employees temperature

  • Reporting capabilities and print-ready templates for on-location use

  • With TeamHub, Harri’s Biometric Time-Clock, employers can push a PPE announcement and digitally process an employee’s acknowledgement and permission

As part of this effort, Harri intends to contribute 50% of its profits from this product to the National Restaurant Association’s Restaurant Employee Relief Fund (RERF). Additionally, in partnership with the NRA and Upskill, Harri will be granting free access to Food Handling and Safety training courses to bolster the health and safety offering at this time.

About Harri:

Harri is an enterprise human capital management platform that helps hospitality businesses build, manage, and engage their teams. With more than 30 modules, the platform provides solutions for talent acquisition, employer branding, applicant tracking, scheduling, time & attendance, communications, compliance, and analytics.
