To Our Valued Customers Concerning the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Outbreak
3/12/2020
There is no higher priority to our entire Prudential Alarm Family than the safety of our customers and employees. We are in contact with medical professionals and are monitoring the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) website, the World Health Organization (WHO) website, and government agency websites to stay on top of this evolving situation. We are making sure that our employees are practicing the proper steps as outlined by the CDC to protect themselvs from both contracting or spreading the virus, with a strict rule to stay home from duty if displaying any cold or flu symptoms.
We want you to feel confident while Prudential Alarm protects your home or establishment. As the concern continues to grow for the Coronavirus, we want you all to rest assured that we always take the necessary precautions to establish cleaning and sanitizing practices throughout each business day. Our installation personnel and staff clean and sanitize all surfaces, door handles, work stations, computers, etc., that they come in contact with. As always, we are committed to upholding the highest standard of cleanliness by continuing to work closely with Ecolab, a global leader in cleaning products. Ecolab has shared best practices and the latest products that may be useful to combat the spread of COVID-19. As we continue to monitor developments and navigate through these challenging circumstances, we want you to know that you can rely on us always to put your health and safety first.
How long can the virus last on surfaces? Current evidence suggests that coronavirus may remain viable for hours to days on surfaces made from a variety of materials.
How is the virus transmitted? Transmission of the virus occurs much more commonly through respiratory droplets than through clothes, utensils, or furniture.
What can we all do to prevent the spread of illness? Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, or use a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol. Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands. Avoid close contact with people who are sick, or those who you may suspect are sick due to coughing or sneezing. Stay home if you are sick, except to get medical care. Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze or use the inside of your elbow. Throw used tissues in the trash, then immediately wash your face and hands with soap or sanitizer. Clean AND disinfect frequently touched surfaces daily.
