Working to Mitigate COVID-19 for Residents and Staff Members
Any staff member with symptoms of COVID-19, being tested for COVID-19, or having a diagnosis of COVID-19, is kept out of work until they have been cleared to return to work by the County Health Department and Thompson Health Associate Health.
We are working very hard to reduce the risk of COVID-19 transmission at the Clark Meadows at Ferris Hills. We have adapted the latest evidence-based local and federal health guidelines to protect residents and staff from the risk of COVID-19. These include, but are not limited to:
- Requiring all staff to undergo symptom and temperature screening prior to reporting to work
- Monitoring residents for an elevated temperature and symptoms everyday
- Universal masking for all staff while they are in our facilities
- New admissions require a negative COVID-19 test prior to admission
- Regularly disinfecting all areas
