Home COVID-19 Supporting You and Your Family Supporting You: NFDA Work/Life Resource Program

Important Advisories

  • Your local and/or state public health officials may be making recommendations for the care of decedents and/or public gatherings that are more stringent than what the CDC and federal government have recommended. In these cases, you should defer to your state and/or local public health officials.
  • The CDC has advised if you think you have been exposed to COVID-19 and/or develop a fever and symptoms, such as cough or difficulty breathing, call your healthcare provider for medical advice. If you are concerned about a potential exposure, this risk assessment for healthcare personnel (HCP) from the CDC may be useful.

Members Say It Best...

“I can attest firsthand, that after a lot of anxiety last week, I actually used the EAP hotline and it was wonderful. I would also be the first to admit, that it is a member benefit that I didn't think I would ever use or have the need for.  Goes to show, we never know!!  Great resource for ourselves as owners, funeral directors and staff as well.“
