Celebrating Halloween may be a little different this year due to Covid-19 but that doesn’t mean it will be any less fun. Here are some tips on how to celebrate safely, but still have a ghastly good time:
• Social distance pumpkin carving – carve your scary squash with friends or family outside at a safe distance
• Host a virtual Halloween costume contest via Zoom or Google Hangouts – enter the chatroom if you dare
• Decorate your house, apartment, or living space – especially the living room (see what we did there?)👻
Happy Haunting! 💀🎃🍬

Due to COVID-19, wearing a mask has become the new normal. This is a reminder that face masks are mandatory in all public places and at all programs here at Summit Hill Senior Living.

Here are other helpful reminders when wearing a face mask:
• Wash your hands before putting on your mask.
• Put it over your nose and mouth and secure it under your chin.
• Don’t put it around your neck, on your chin, or on your forehead.
• Don’t touch the mask; if you do, wash your hands or use hand sanitizer.
• Be sure to follow all social distancing guidelines and remain at least six feet apart.
Taking the necessary safety precautions can help mitigate the virus and keep you safe!
