The specialized nature of supported living precludes any closing of the agency.  The administrative team of Creative Concepts for Living works to stay informed of potential emergencies, to include inclement weather and to keep all stakeholders informed and prepared for emergencies. Personnel who provide direct care services are expected to report to work as scheduled.  Creative Concepts for Living may assist with the coordination of transportation for employees at the employees’ cost, during times of inclement weather.  On those days, tardies will not be counted against the employees.  Employees who are late and/or absent from work because of inclement weather or other natural disasters must notify his/her immediate supervisor of his/her difficulties at the start of the work day.  Absences do apply for missing work due to inclement weather.
