View Home Visit Safety in the Age of COVID-19

Statistics show that crime rates are rising in most cities and even in sparsely populated areas. There is also a work force shortage with many professionals unwilling to make home visits due to safety concerns related to crime, COVID-19, and safety concerns. This training will address ways to improve home visit safety and lower the risk of becoming injured while making home visits.
