T.J. Health Columbia adding tent to assist with triage By Stacey Biggs A tent is being erected in the parking lot at T.J. Health Columbia, adjacent to the Emergency Department. This is a proactive measure that is being taken in anticipation of a potential surge of patients seeking care for respiratory illnesses. It is not cause for alarm. The Kentucky Hospital Association has recommended that all hospitals have a similar plan in place that can be implemented immediately should there be an influx of patients. This ensures that upon arrival, patients can be triaged at the point of entry, and those with respiratory symptoms and complaints can be separated from non-infectious patients. The tent is being constructed today at T.J. Health Columbia, and it will be ready for operation if or when the need arises. 2020-04-13 12:02:33 | Comments | Printable version

BofC assisting businesses filing for Paycheck Protection Program By Andrea Waggener The news of the passage of the CARES Act came as a relief to many local small businesses trying to find a way to stay afloat during the nationwide COVID-19 pandemic. However, the Small Business Administration application process can be overwhelming and multiple changes to the original program made it confusing for some individuals to be able to file confidently. That's why Bank of Columbia has been dedicated to assisting business owners in filing applications for the SBA Payroll Protection Program. Bank of Columbia President Mark Dykes is hopeful that these businesses will be able to open their doors again when the crisis is over. Bank of Columbia has disbursed over $3 million in SBA PPP funds (at the time of this release), with that total projected to hit $6 million by the end of next week. Those funds are almost exclusively loans to local businesses, which means the money stays here to help business owners continue paying their employees.
