Stopping the Spread
TouroCOM Middletown students are continuing in their effort to help keep Orange County safe from the spread of the coronavirus.
“We Can’t Sit Back”
Many residents at the Harlem Center for Nursing & Rehabilitation Center on W. 138th St. either don’t have family or can’t be with them... and many are at high risk for infection. But each resident has a tablet, preloaded with the ability to video chat, so last week, TouroCOM Harlem students joined them on Skype for individual chats, showing their eagerness to help during COVID-19. More sessions are slated for the coming weeks, and our compassionate students are eager to participate.
