Rossmoor Walnut Creek COVID-19 Resources

Rossmoor Coronavirus Covid-19 Updates and Resources

 

This is a difficult time for us all, and especially for those seniors who have been asked to self-isolate for their own health due to the Covid-19 strain of the Coronavirus.  The Rossmoor community is (as always) amazing in their resourcefulness and sense of community.

I’m posting some resources to help keep all informed at Rossmoor Walnut Creek with Rossmoor coronavirus updates.  I could use your help! I encourage you to use the comments section, or email me, Tim Eng, at tim@timengteam.com to let me know if there is any additional information or links that I should add that would be helpful.  

At this time, no cases of the Covid-19 Coronavirus have been publicly reported at Rossmoor.

Stay safe.
