Thanks Peter.  I do have a question though.  If staff have been in contact with someone who is being tested and quarantined at the hospital, what should we require staff do while awaiting results?

Hello Everyone,

 

I hope you are well.

 

I am forwarding an email with some staff screening guidelines.  The email states they could be used for ICFs but I think it is good information for all providers. 

 

Also there is a link to the DODD Support Teams Map.

 

Let me know if you have any questions.

 

Thank you.

 

Pete

Thank you for all you are doing to support the providers during this difficult time.  Attached is an employee screening form the ICFs could use, if they choose.   I know that this is another layer and we want to make this as easy as possible for them.  The safety of the individuals and staff are a top priority.  Feel free to share the form if you feel it could be beneficial to the ICFs.  Also please ensure all providers have the DODD Support Teams information that came out yesterday.    Here is the link for the map  DODD Statewide Support Teams map.  Please feel free to contact me, if I don’t know the answer I will get you one!  Thanks.
