COVID 19 Statement

These are exceptional times. With Coronavirus – COVID-19 - we all face an unprecedented global challenge. The Stiltz Group continue to review activities on a daily basis to ensure we comply with safety directives at all times. At the same time, we look to balance this with providing the expected levels of service and support to our customers while being mindful of minimising risk for all concerned.

We are acutely aware that our customers tend to fall into higher risk categories, whether due to age, or as a result of pre-existing medical conditions. Therefore it is all the more important for our current and future customers to maintain their safety and independence at home with the help of their homelifts; this contributes towards the current policy of social distancing, especially important for seniors and those with compromised immune systems. Reduction of accidents within the home at this time will also help minimize the burden on the increasingly stressed healthcare system.

We are keen to ensure those who need new homelifts installed and those who require their lifts to be serviced, can expect these activities to take place without fear of risk to their health. There are multiple online resources that will guide you to assist in providing a safe workplace for your employees and help protect the customers whose home you visit. Two we would recommend are:

CDC - click here to visit
OSHA - click here to visit

We are in this together and are standing by to offer you as much support as possible during this challenging time. If you have any questions, concerns or doubts about anything, please contact your territory manager or the technical services team and we will do our best to assist.

Sincerely

Mark Blomfield

President

If you enjoy sports or want to take up a new sporting pastime, summer provides the perfect weather for golfing and tennis. Many retirement

communities and resorts offer golf courses and tennis courts where you can stay active, improve your skills, and socialize with fellow enthusiasts.

Birdwatching is a tranquil and rewarding outdoor activity.

Grab a pair of binoculars and head to local parks or nature reserves to spot a variety of bird species.

Joining birdwatching groups or participating in birdwatching tours can enhance the experience by learning from experienced enthusiasts.

On clear summer nights, retirees can indulge in the wonders of the night sky through stargazing.

Whether it’s using a telescope or simply lying on a blanket, stargazing is so much fun because it allows us to connect with the vastness of the universe, igniting our curiosity and sense of wonder.

Observing constellations, shooting stars, and celestial objects sparks a feeling of awe and contemplation, reminding us of our place in the grand cosmos.
