Bright Horizons Responds to National Health Emergency With Pandemic Alert Back-Up Child Care Solutions
Date:5/1/2009

WATERTOWN, Mass., May 1 /PRNewswire/ -- Bright Horizons Family Solutions LLC, the world's leading provider of employer-sponsored child care and early education, back-up care, and work/life solutions, today announced a new emergency or "back-up" child care solution to help employers and working families manage during times of public health emergencies, like those related to influenza A H1N1 (swine flu), when schools are closed and regular child care is not available due to possible health risks.

"We are offering this new program to provide employers with immediate access to a wide range of back-up child and elder care solutions that solve their business challenges, families' needs, and support the best practices in preventive health measures in the face of this national public health emergency," said Bright Horizons CEO Dave Lissy. "In keeping with our core mission, this service provides children with excellent care, gives parents the peace-of-mind they need to be present and productive at work, and offers employers creative answers to real time business needs."

To help employers support their employees, who have dependents whose schools close but who are not suffering from swine flu symptoms as outlined by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), Bright Horizons has launched Back-Up Care Advantage: Crisis Care Assist, a new program where employers can provide their employees with a benefit that allows them to a) access a nationwide network of in-home child care providers; and/or b) secure payment for care they arrange within their family or existing social network. This program provides a vital service while not opening new social connections that can spread the risk of exposure in the face of a potential flu pandemic. Through the program, care is also available anytime of day or night and for any duration necessary, which can be especially beneficial to hospital workers, for instance, who may have to work over
