Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) Update

Families, friends, and neighbors:

As we provide a critical service to the public, WE ARE OPEN during this novel coronavirus (COVID-19) public health emergency.

We are following guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control as well as local, state, and federal health officials to adjust gatherings within our home to minimize the risk of person-to-person transmission. Our goal is to help protect the health and safety of our guests, employees, and our community at-large.

We understand the need for sensitivity and professional care during this challenging time and stand ready to guide you and make arrangements in person, by phone, or online means. We are on-call 24-hours a day and stand ready to assist. We can be reached by phone day or night on our main line: (713) 804-7384. If you need special accommodations when entering our facility, please call for assistance.

As a matter of public safety, we kindly ask that any member of the public experiencing symptoms of respiratory illness, including fever or cough, refrain from entering our facility. We also ask that you limit person-to-person contact as much as possible and join us in practicing social distancing. Together we can do our part in minimizing the spread of this deadly illness.
