The NHDOC is working closely with the Joint Information Center at the New Hampshire Homeland Security and Emergency Management's Incident Planning and Operations Center for the most up to date information regarding COVID-19. We are following the guidelines of the CDC and DHHS with regards to prevention and preparedness and are monitoring the responses of state correctional facilities nationwide based on COVID-19 confirmed cases in their states and New Hampshire county correctional facilities. Our efforts are to ensure we are keeping ahead and astride of appropriate operatinal adjustments to maintain the health and wellness of our staff and residents while balancing the benefits of family visits for our residents. As there are currently only direct contact positive cases in ew Hampshire, we contiue to allow visitation, however should this change, to include cases that were transmitted through community contagion and confirmatory test numbers increase, reassessment of the situation may result in cancellation of visitation until further notice. We are constantly examining our preparedness plan. We are being responsive by taking precautions to try to prevent COVID-19 expsure from happening in our facilities.
