COVID-19 Information and Action Plan

First State Bank "Doing our part"

Our lobbies are open for business but in a safe and cautious way.  Proper safety guidelines are being used to ensure the health and well-being of customers and employees.  This includes signage encouraging social distancing and wearing face masks, along with expanded sanitizing requirements. 

To protect the health and well-being of our customers, if you are feeling ill, we encourage you to use our electronic banking products. 

While we’re in unprecedented times, our customers can rest assured that their money will remain safe and accessible even in the midst of the coronavirus outbreak in this country.

Since 2007, when the H5N1 virus – or avian flu – spread throughout the globe, federal banking regulators have directed financial institutions to include pandemic planning as part of their overall business continuity plans.  Specifically, our plan provides for a preventive program, a documented strategy scaled to the stages of a pandemic outbreak, a comprehensive framework to ensure the continuance of critical operations, a testing program, and an oversight program to ensure the plan is reviewed and updated.

 

  • Our drive thru services remain open during regular drive thru hours.
  • Our ATMs are available 24/7.  
  • We have additional Call Center employees available to help with all your questions and needs.
  • Our online and mobile banking services are available 24/7.
    • Access your account balances, transactions and other important account details.
    • Transfer funds between your accounts.
    • Deposit checks via our Mobile Capture app.
    • Pay bills online by setting up recurring or one-time payments and send money to family and friends.

Although coronavirus cases in our area are so far limited, we continue to monitor information from the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and are reinforcing best health practices in offices and branches.

We appreciate your patience in this difficult time.

Sincerely,

Michael Neill

Chief Executive Officer
