We are excited about the re-opening of Saint Francis Adult Day Health.  To execute a safe re-opening, several items have been addressed across all areas of our program.  As always, our first and foremost concern is for safety and well-being of participants, families, and staff. 

There are several layers of screening in place: 

(a copy of the screening tool / questions is attached for your reference)

  • All participants and staff are expected to self-screen at home.

  • Participant utilizing our transportation will be screened by the van driver prior to entrance onto the van.

  • All Participants and staff entering ADH will be screened prior to entering the ADH lobby.

  • Staff or participants with a temperature of greater than 100.3 or who answers yes to ONE of the screening questions during the self-screening,  are directed to stay home and speak with their PCP.

  • Any participant with a temperature of greater than100.3 or who answers yes to ONE of the screening questions will not be permitted onto the van. 

  • Upon being screened at the ADH door, any participant, or staff with a temperature of greater than 100.3 or who answers yes to ONE of the screening questions will not be permitted into the program.

Environmental Preparedness: 

  • All areas throughout the entire ADH program have been cleaned and disinfected.

  • The chairs and furniture have been set up for necessary social distancing.

  • Adequate PPE is on hand and readily available for all staff.

  • Multiple Hand Sanitizing stations are placed throughout the entire program for staff and participant use.

  • Vans have been measured and marked for adherence to social distancing guidelines.

  • We have developed a cleaning plan and schedule which includes the vans.
