The Sheriff's Office has participated in weekly calls with the Governor's Office and health officials to keep informed and to be prepared. At this time we don't expect to much to change in procedures at the Sheriff's Office. If you call for service you may be asked a few additional questions prior to the arrival of any emergency services. Any direct contact from outside personnel and inmates will be postponed for at least 30 days.
What can you do to help protect yourself in this incident and future incidents like this.
First and foremost DON"T Panic!!!!
Everyone should have hand sanitizer
Practice proper hand hygiene by washing your hands after coughing, sneezing or physically interacting with others. Washing our hands for 20 seconds is like singing the happy birthday song twice
Avoid touching your face. Your most likely to contract any virus through your eyes, nose and mouth.
Cover your mouth and nose if you sneeze or cough, trying to use your elbow if possible.
Use disinfectant wipes and hand sanitizer when you can.

I want to assure you that your public officials are working with each other to ensure that we can serve you and your needs.
