The facility has a plan in place which follows Community Care Licensing guidelines for when and how long to test staff and their clients, when and how to isolate/quarantine clients, and when to schedule cleaning and disinfection times of high traffic and frequently touched areas. The facility also has a plan in place to monitor their clients regularly for any changes in condition and to subsequently notify the clients physician and to notify all emergency agencies in the event of any COVID-19 related and/or suspected illnesses.
