Mask Become Mandatory - Be Sure to Wear Yours
More cities and towns, and ABC, are mandating that all individuals wear masks when interacting with non-household members. As an ABC caregiver you are required to wear your mask when caring for your clients . Remember, t he benefit and reason to wear ANY mask is to protect YOU the healthcare workers who are un-infected by reducing transmission from their surroundings, including from other staff, and patients who are not yet diagnosed with COVID-19 that may be in a pre-symptomatic stage. If you do not have a mask, or need additional masks, please contact the office.

Pre-visit Screening Helps Reduce COVID-19 Spread

REMINDER: To help keep you safe while continuing to serve the needs of our clients we are implementing the pre-screening protocol below. Before providing service for any clients you visit, please ask/inquire on a regular basis the following questions:

  1. How are you feeling / do you feel well?
  2. Do you feel hot or have a fever? (remember many of our clients do not have or are unable to take their temperature)
  3. Do you have a sore throat or dry cough? 
  4. Are any of your family members currently sick? Have any members of your family traveled outside of Massachusetts recently?

If they answer YES to any of the questions above, please call the office immediately. Also, as is standard practice, if you notice during your visit that you or your client is/are not feeling well, please call the office immediately.
