Keeping America Safe

Transforming Business Together

Businesses face a constantly changing landscape due to COVID-19 leaving owners with many questions and concerns. All types of businesses are affected like:
  • Restaurants
  • Commercial Real Estate and Office Spaces
  • Schools
  • Salon/Spas
  • Shopping Malls
They need to do their best to keep employees, customers and visitors safe but aren’t healthcare experts. That’s why we created the Keeping America Safe: Hackensack Meridian Health Assist Program to share best practices in safety, cleanliness, education and testing. Several business owners’ concerns that our program addresses include:
  • How can I best protect my employees and customers against COVID-19 transmission?
  • How can I keep track of the changing guidelines and their impact on policies and protocols?
  • How can I certify that crucial, precautionary measures have been implemented as my commitment to provide a safe environment?
  • How do I need to reconfigure my environment to accommodate for social distancing?
  • What should I do if someone tests positive for COVID-19?
  • How can I best support my employees’ health and wellbeing?
