Guidance for meetings

  1. We strongly encourage you not to conduct in-person client meetings and we should all be prudent to exercise an abundance of caution. This includes, but is not limited to:
    a. Opt for video meetings or phone calls where possible
    b. Avoid in-person meetings if either you or another participant are at-risk
    i. Contact participants in advance to ask about their level of comfort with an in-person meeting
    ii. Don’t assume; ask.
    iii. Do not meet in person if you are feeling ill or the other participant is not feeling well. Again, ask.
    iv. If you do proceed with an in-person meeting, please document the client’s agreement to meet for your file. This will be key if there are any questions later regarding meetings or participants.
    c. Practice social distancing. Stay at least 6 feet from the client. Follow the guidelines as prescribed by the CDC for any in-person meetings. Here is a link to the CDC’s COVID-19 resource page: CDC Guidelines and Recommendations
  2. We are open for business, despite our presence at the physical building in Omaha being extremely limited.
    a. We have virtual support capabilities in most home office functions
    b. We are working to provide the highest level of support we can under this arrangement — thank you for your patience.
