During the Covid 19 pandemic 22 Extension Homemaker members in Rockcastle County report that they have assisted others by using their sewing skills. Members report that they have made and donated just over 400 cloth face coverings for health care professionals, family and friends. 20 reuseable cloth gowns were also sewn for use by a long-term care facility which couldn’t get a sufficient number of disposable gowns for their healthcare workers. The nursing care mananger shared that "the gowns will definitely saved the lives of our staff. These (gowns) can be washed in hot water by or laundry services and used 2-3 per day. That is significant to us when we can't find disposable gowns to buy."
