Please make virtual visits permanent.
 

Hi,

The virtual visits are almost exactly the same as in person visits. There is only one minute exception, obtaining the signature in the "in person". Our needs are being fully met with virtual visits. The added bonus is that our immunocompromised kids are being protected from extra exposure. With different variants and viruses out there, virtual visits are extremely helpful. We as parents should have a say in this as it is putting our kids at higher risk through unnecessary and avoidable exposure. Moms in Motion have been extremely professional and helpful. Another grave concern over the ending of our virtual visits is that our facilitators visiting multiple immunocompromised clients would be at risk themselves.

Thank you for your understanding,
