State Parks Available for First Responders' Quarantine if Needed
Gov. Andy Beshear announced on March 6 that the state would begin allowing first responders and front-line health care workers to quarantine in cabins at state parks in five locations across the commonwealth, which would allow them to quarantine away from their families and other loved ones if necessary.
“It’s a good use of those state parks and we’re excited to do it,” the Governor.
First responders and health care personnel interested in accommodations should contact their local emergency management operations center or visit kyem.ky.gov.
During Monday’s media briefing, Beshear also said the state has plans in the works to use lodges for patients if necessary. It will add nearly 1,200 beds.
