Today is #VisitationSavesLives Day, a national movement to restore visitation to long term care facilities through a safe, designated visitor program.
Why do you visit? Join us by posting how the visitation ban affects you, tag key decision makers, and use the hashtag #VisitationSavesLives. Use our toolkit: https://visitationsaveslives.com/social-media-toolkit/
We are four months into California's ban.

Social isolation leads to increased risk of death, depression and anxiety. The time is far past due to find reasonable ways for residents to see their families.
